How to make people think you like them

The entire purpose here is to get out of a situation in which you are forced to interact with unappetizing folks, but maintain a feeling of friendliness. You want to be outta there, but you want them to feel unthreatened by your presence and unoffended by your escape.

disclaimer: I may or may not be good at this

1. Smile and make small talk. This is difficult if you are unsociable. Do it anyway. Most humans respond well to small talk. If you have to hit a speakeasy on the way over to loosen things up, DO IT.
2. Leave on a good note. Make a joke and duck out.
3. Leave a trail of gifts for pursuers to be distracted by.
4. Never tell anyone your real name
