How does one avoid becoming the all too familiar (in this area) office drone who constantly brags to the co-workers about their children, their pets and how much fun they had back when they were in college?

Working in an office is pure hell.
Fuck this shit.
How do I avoid becoming one of these people?
I hate all of them.
Every single one of them.
Fuck this shit.
How do I avoid becoming one of these people?

Every single one of them.

In the short term, find another group of people you can regularly be around. Go to the gym, join a running group, etc. In the long term if you really hate working in an office, perhaps find another job. Unfortunately most jobs are office jobs or have similiar drawbacks. I have an office job but for 90% of the day I can wear headphones. Find some good podcasts, good music, or learn a foreign language.

Also, find more interesting work. I work with computer people. We do a lot of database work and design. Not a lot of time for chit-chat and most of the people are quiet/serious computer dudes. If the work is interesting and keeps everyone busy, that is a great work environment. It sounds like your office has a bunch of losers.

I prefer to talk about my latest health concern - dandruff, UTI, hemorrhoids, bowel issues. It's something new and different every day with me and I enjoy using descriptive prose...so entertaining I'm sure.

OP is a single loser who had no fun in college and is now on the bottom of the office food chain. Show a little respect to your superiors!

OP probably went to NVCC and transferred to GMU while living in his parents basement the whole time.

Sleep with the boss. Maybe then you'll get an office with a door that you can close.

If you work in a office then you are the loser. You might as well join in on the conversations. Nothing is created, discovered or cured in a office. You are just breathing and/or contracting others bad health and disease.
The Great American Dream has been bestowed upon you.
Accept your fate. You'll die eventually.

So in other words 95% of the workforce in the DC metro area are losers?

I suggest talking to your co-workers about the Amway line of products, and how they could own a home based business.
Should drive them away - If not stop washing your ass.

Just admit it, you're jealous because you don't have a wife, kids, house, or anything to brag about.

Or just keep telling people you want to teach them about Jesus. And keep Chick Tracts and bibles out on your desk. Send out emails every morning about the importance of prayer. Invite coworkers to your home to study the good book.
People will avoid you like the plague.

Soiled adult diapers in the trash can inside your work area is a sure fire way to clear out unwanted distractions/visitors
