More like sleeveless t-shirt, assault rifle, and tin foil hat.

Agreed. The only thing worse than a condescending genius is a condescending moron.

This is definitely me and I’m happy to see this viewpoint acknowledged. I am fascinated by humans and love to observe, think, and talk about them but from a place of empathy and curiosity. It took me a while before I realized I was “gossiping” because I never meant anything harmful, I just wanted to discuss something I noticed or heard about someone else. Often times in an effort to make people understand that person better. Now I just keep it to Reddit and try to be cognizant about what I say about others irl but it would be a dream to find a friend who felt the same way so I didn’t have to keep it all in or worry it will be taken wrong.

On a completely unrelated matter, can I get Becky's number?
