Your suggestions are also the only way I can manage to deal with adults effectively. The only difference is that I don't have any kind of legal or biological obligation to coexist with most adults and since it really does require a lot of energy and time as you say, I rarely ever do it. There's nothing more infuriating to me than being the only person in a room full of adults actually trying to communicate maturely. Especially when the people I'm talking to are older than me.
