If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yes, but some people, myself included, find forcibly requiring individuals to introduce themselves in succession to be disingenuous.
Yes, and a lot of shit you have to do socially in life is going to be disingenuous. I hated it, I still hate it, but I've also seen it used well as a way to at least ensure everyone has spoken before a discussion group. It's an icebreaker, it's not supposed to be deep talk, it's supposed to mean there's a chance that everyone has at least heard each other's name once before
I have had to participate in a "Everyone introduce themselves" like five times at a job I've worked at less than a year. I don't enjoy it, and I don't think anyone does, but it's also important to know who the people you are working with are. Would I ever do it if I didn't have to? No way. But I do. And practice has made it easier at least.
