Imagine someone you never seen before walk up to you and says “Hello.” Whatever you were thinking about is now irretrievably lost. Furthermore you now have to reply. Since it’s not text, you gotta do it quickly. And quickly without thinking you reply “potato”, realize what you just said, and awkwardly walk away.
