OrBut. Not orbit.
The words "or" and "but" are amazingly efficient conversation stoppers. When we use those words, we automatically signal to others that they are not thinking clearly enough, or intelligently enough, or, at the very least, at a level on par with ourselves. It's really not a good look.
Inserting the word "and" when we're tempted to use those other two subtly opens the world of possibility up by inviting others to think with us, to combine our thinking and experience and perspective.
AND, just think of the amazing things we might do together...
