Smile, shut-up and don't interfere with the conversation by asking. Occasionally, I feign the reaction that is being shared by others. Enjoy the company.

Bluffing is a common strategy, but it can get you in big trouble sometimes. Does anyone have a story about that happening to you?
Yep, grin like an idiot and shake your head like you understood what was said.

Sometimes that’s what you have to do…depends on the people around you, the acoustics, the venue etc. Even if you have assisted technology it always doesn’t work well enough in certain situations. There are times, rather than get stressed out, I sit back and enjoy the company as you say.
