Personality

Your brain ships with a critical-thinking chip. While everyone else watches the show, you're looking at the structure, the motives and the plot holes. Alone time is your charging station, and loud crowds make your CPU overheat. You're picky about information and obsessed with the truth; fall down a research rabbit hole and you might not leave the house for three days. Your intuition is scary accurate: the people who give you a weird first impression usually turn out to be weird. Your lesson: life isn't a lab. Sometimes switch off analysis mode and just feel it.

Natural gift
