Local man pretending to listen, actually just waiting for gap in conversation so he can start talking about creatine again

GOOD CHAT: A Sydney man having coffee with friends today was patiently waiting for even the smallest lull in conversation so he could talk about his obsession with creatine.

Josh Delaney politely nodded his way through a conversation about the cost of living and someone’s recent relationship breakup.

But the entire time he was grasping his shaker bottle filled with creatine, and was desperate to talk about it.

“He gave excellent fake eye contact,” one of his friends who was at the cafe told DBT.

“He even threw in the occasional “that’s crazy” and “totally.”

The 31 year old Darlinghurst man then slipped a 5g scoop of creatine powder into his shaker bottle, hoping someone would ask what it was.

“Nobody did ask him,” says the friend. “So then he began violently shaking the bottle in a last ditch effort to attract attention to it.”

Eventually as the conversation slowed, Josh Delaney pounced.

“Have you guys tried creatine yet?” he asked, despite asking the exact same question when the group first sat down at the cafe.

“Seriously you guys really need to try it, I’ve been using it for 3 months now. Energy. Focus. Gains. It’s wild.”

Then when the bill came, Delaney refused to contribute saying the only thing he had was his creatine.
