Text in the upper left with an expressionless head to the right with a hand putting an earbud in for them saying, "Gonna really listen to others today"

A pair of hands is now putting on what look to be blinders over the head's eyes with text to the mid-left saying, "Give them my full attention"

Lastly at the bottom, the head is now shown wearing a VR headset with earbuds in and text on the bottom left saying, "I feel so immersed in our conversations now"

Blank version below if you wanna make your own variations!

I wish I could just creep on people IRL. Granted, the conversations I listen to in VR chat are pretty skewed towards the lower levels of degeneracy. IRL humans have pretty boring small talk.

Depends on the location and timing I think. Find a restaurant or a bar that's okay with you lounging with your drink of choice and you might find yourself eavesdropping on some strange chatter

So? He's having some good chat with other people in VR. What about that?
