It's not. I simply find you tedious, annoying, a busy-body, wrong on all accounts, and I am already dealing with an inhospitable landscape that is doing its best to kill me every second of the day. I simply do not have the wherewithal to deal with you.
Well, yes, but I'm not just gonna take that at face value because it's highly improbably? Also, I woke up in a body bag.
[He hums, sticking his lower lip out at Occam's Razor, because yeah, but...]
You wanna talk theories? Okay then, only looking at what most people here say is a McNamara fallacy. Also, my friends [he pauses, too, pulling a bit of a face because it's just so weird??] are going to be really emotional about this. One of them screamed at me and then he started crying and what do you even say to that, I don't know what to do with these people!
Look, you're relying on the availability heuristic and you're weighing your judgments on what you are recalling as recent information, which it is not, as clearly you're suffering from some kind of memory loss, and therefore making biased opinions on this new information.
[A beat.]
It's a wonder how any of these people manage to survive for any length of time.
You could be lying to me, of course, but even then it would give me new intel that others might try to shield me from. I've received contradicting information already and I've since determined that it's most likely due to the fact that people are perceiving me as too young or are trying to be nice to me. Which I don't have a problem with on a personal level? But it's really frustrating from a scientific point of view.
You don't like me so there is a good chance you are going to either try and make me feel horrible or stick to the facts. ... Or both, since the facts seem to be pretty horrible. Either way, it will give me insight into how this place works and how people in it interact.

[And his headache is just getting worse.]
I can only imagine why.

Everybody else pretends to be my friend and that is just... it's weird, okay? Like, what you're saying? That actually makes sense.
no subject
[A pause, he says the word friends like it physically pains him.]
What is more likely? The entire town conspiring against you...well, in this case, for you, or the fact that what they're saying is true?
Occam's Razor, I'm afraid.

That is precisely why I am talking to you!
