Have you ever been told that you have a strange affinity with your possessions? I.e, organizing, collecting, hoarding, or just knowing where certain things are that would have no particular purpose to anyone else. You don't have to agree - just had it pointed out.

Yes

Not particularly

Don't most people do that?

How good are you at using social conventions to your aid?

Comically bad. You know how it is. To which I say, yeah I do. Ha ha

Average. I have my ups and downs but I wouldn't say it's something I really had to put specific effort into learning?

It's a stressful life but I've become somewhat of a talk wizard. It's a skill that I've learned like any other.

Have you ever noticed or has anyone ever pointed out that you have different reactions (positive or negative) to certain textures or consistencies than most people?

Not really

Yes

Did you 'act up' a lot as a child? Were you overly emotional or obsessive? Even now, does it still feel like the only difference is that you now know how to hide those feelings?

Yes

No more than most

Maybe

Underneath the humble exterior, are you secretly really good at something, even if it's something weird?

I am a person who has memorized all Academy-Award winning films since the 1980's.

I was gonna say yeah but it's nothing on that level? What are we describing as really good??

No??????

Do you ever feel like a reptile masquerading in a human skin, and that the people are soon going to find you out and burn you at the stake?

Prince Harry looked nervous as he was presented with a 118-year-old lizard

Psychologically and seriously, no I do not really feel a looming fear that the jig will be up

Humanity's downfall will probably come from the fact that it's somehow par for the course that we don't actually say what we're thinking.

I agree with that statement, it's something that I've busted my ass trying to learn and figure out and I'm still not fully there.

Haha what a funny joke! People sure are strange. AKA I disagree and I've really only had as many miscomunications as most people have. It's not something I've spend hours of my life pondering even though I think I'm suddenly a scholar philosophy when I do think about it.

I disagree with that statement and I'll send you a million page essay detailing why you're wrong

This isn't the question, but have you ever considered whether you feel emotions and reactions to things in a more physical way than most? I.E, feeling homesick=literally physically ill, feeling angry=feeling like your bones are rupturing. Maybe not specifically that, but do you personally vibe with what I'm getting at here?

Not Really...

Yes

Here's the classic: When growing up, were you more obsessed with certain things for prolonged periods of time than most? If so, do you still get that as an adult?

Yes, and yes

Yes, but I grew out of it

No more than most children
