I'm just gonna warn you from the get-go I'm a Sci-Fi nerd so I'm going to give you a very Sci-Fi answer because it's one of my multiple special interests: One thing you definitely don't know about this local internet stranger is that I have ADHD. My mind is essentially that one scene in X-Men 2 where Nightcrawler is teleporting throughout the White House. If you mention the carnival, I'll think rides, I'll think puking on rides, I'll think you puked on the ride because you had too many sweets, I'll think Sprite is a sweet, I'll think about the time a wasp stung me because I got some Sprite on me, and 10 seconds after you mention the carnival, I'm talking about wasps are a demon creature What was that rant for? Well basically my theory is that I'm thinking so fast that I would have to slow down to say my sentence and while I'm saying my sentence, I'm focusing on 20 other things. TL;DR I have ADHD and I'm constantly making mental jumps that I can't focus enough on my sentence for my body to finish it. I'm aware that this is probably malarky, but I think it's nice and not harmful (feel free to respectfully prove me wrong)
