I think it's actually the more polite thing to do, because I'm not coercing partygoers into some big farewell moment with me. Then other people feel like they have to stop what they're doing and hug me, too. It's time-wasting dominoes.
Mindy Kaling shares her perspective on social interactions at parties, arguing that she prefers slipping away quietly rather than making a big exit. She feels that by not demanding a farewell moment, she is being considerate to others, allowing them to continue enjoying their time without interruption. This approach, in her view, prevents awkwardness and the pressure for others to join in on a potentially uncomfortable goodbye.
Kaling's viewpoint reflects a desire to be polite and avoid imposing on her friends' experiences. She highlights the dynamics of social gatherings, commenting that when one person makes a scene to say goodbye, it can lead to a chain reaction that disrupts the enjoyment of the event for everyone involved.
