Hate that early Autumn conversation? Trying to avoid talking about whatever it is you might\u2019ve done this summer? The <\/span>Dealer <\/span><\/i>has your back! Try these 10 responses to the question, \u201cWhat did you do this summer?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

1. \u201cThat color you\u2019re wearing isn\u2019t doing your complexion any favors.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Offend them enough that they won\u2019t bother you anymore.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. \u201cI got scammed into doing unpaid labor in a rural community in Delaware, but I got out of it.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Talk about shameful modern-day grifts and get their mind off whether or not you had a summer internship and onto whether they were fairly compensated for their own backbreaking Excel work.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. \u201cI was a hilltern in D.C.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

No one wants to hear about that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. \u201cI\u2019m writing a made-for-TV movie that\u2019s sure to take off.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

NO ONE wants to hear about that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. \u201cI tried to apply for jobs but I spilled a huge cup of Dr. Pepper on my laptop.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Might as well be honest.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. \u201cAll the internships in my area burned down.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Hey, it happens!<\/span><\/p>\n

7. \u201cI got lost.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

This might prompt further questions, but you can, in a pinch, always just yell \u201cFIRE\u201d and disappear.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

8. \u201cWho are you?\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Self-explanatory.<\/span><\/p>\n

9. \u201cWhen I was 7, a large, beautiful bird stole my baby sister and I\u2019m the only one who saw it happen\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Get the topic off summer and onto that fateful November afternoon.<\/span><\/p>\n

10. \u201cNo, what did YOU do?\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t want to talk, you might as well listen.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
