I was described to someone, right in front of me, as “…the sort of person who educates people involuntarily.”
Nothings better than a captive audience >:)
Yeah I’ve never thought about it until then. Now I’ve tried hard to modify my behaviour.
Or find a flock of other ADHD people that do the exact same thing.
One of my friends enjoys listening to me ramble about things in the same way you'd put an hour long YouTube video essay on
I feel like I'm in the handful of people in this world that finds this trait kinda cute. I know nothing about solving rubiks cubes, but I listened to a guy talk about it unrestrained for like 2 hours.
"Congratulations, you are being educated!"
Please don't resist.
