Maybe your coworker equates silence with devious plotting. :)

Oh SNORT - this is what I'm going to say!  "Takes a lot of concentration when I'm deviously plotting."  ;D

Or, "Yes, well, I have so much to think about, trying to decide which diabolical plan I'm going to use to take over the world.  What do you think about flying robot monkeys?"

There is a quiet young man on my team. It's known he is quiet. However, now and then, someone will try to tease him with, "Boy, you're being quiet!"

His response? "Yup."

I love it.

I am a very shy person so I get this a lot. Some people just aren't that talkative! I don't know why some people have to be socializing all the time.

"I'm listening out for the leprechauns.  Evil things when they sneak up on you, which is easy to do when you're talking a lot..."
