This is actually how the wealthy behave; stand too close and talk too loud. (Wish I could find the study about it, but it seems to have fallen off the radar).
The concept of “personal space” differs in different cultures. So maybe this is an expression of the Cultural Tradition of “Too Close” and Rat should be more tolerant.
Personally, I’d give the guy a big, hard Cold Shoulder where it would hurt the most….

Worse than a ‘low talker’.

Too close for comfort. Surely, you can’t be serious? I would rather have a friend whose name is “Late for Dinner”.

Never thought of Rat as a navel grazer, I mean gazer.

I step CLOSER! It actually works, maybe my breath. Love them onion bagels.

Some people do it to intentionally make other people feel uncomfortable, as a form of intimidation.

Did personality tests years ago; seems like this one fell under sanguine. They want center stage!!

There’s still a door for too close to close.

In some cultures, “too close” is the norm, completely acceptable. Not for me, though. In some cases, you’re “too close” if I can still hear you….

Maybe they should call that guy, “Personal” Space Invader! (Some of you kids probably won’t get that reference).

Technically that’s not “Standing” too close.
