Just Another Geek Running His Beak

Not everyone is working on a script here, they might be trying to act, or write music for films. Trying to make movies without actually being in the movie business is a conversation killer, rather than a conversation starter. A typical example might be like the one I had with Selina:

Her: 'So I'm waiting tables at my friend's place downtown, and helping my sister out with her esthetician business, and working on my screenwriting'

Me: 'Oh, you write - cool, me too. How's that going?'

'It's going. You know.' (looks me in the eye suspiciously to signal end of subject)
