We talk a lot about about the parasocial relationships with celebrities and stuff, but what about when you've been entering the same person's name in a form at work doing data entry for years and then they call for IT help and you're like, "Oh my god, it's my friend Marissa! I'm so excited to finally talk to her!" but she's literally just a name on a drop down menu so all you do is help her reset her password in a calm, business-like manner even though you really want to ask her if she changed her name 2 years ago because of a marriage or divorce and either way congratulations.
