@sarahjeong Nice! I got 760, by basically never talking for 10 years -
@sep332 I'm convinced that I'm misremembering my score. It's been a long time and I took it multiple times. Fell into that transition year. -
@sep332 I'm about 50/50 on whether I'm remembering right.

@sarahjeong earliest clear memory I have is from daycare when I was 4 or 5, reading a math book and being scolded to play with kids instead -
@vogon 5th grade, told to play with kids instead of finishing Les Miserables -
@vogon the funny thing is that i socialized fine with people once i got to college and met people i could actually relate to -
@sarahjeong yeah once I was old enough that there was a clearly-defined group of nerds at school I found a niche -
@vogon nerds are rare enough that it's a bit of a crapshoot as to whether you can find them where you are

@sarahjeong I used to read my books under my desk like kids use their phones now... Always got scolded and told to put it away. -
@vibills lol i once got scolded in an english class for reading supplementary literary essays about the shakespeare play we were studying -
@vibills like all we were doing at the time was reading the play out loud and i was bored

@sarahjeong I think a lot of "kids are so shallow and always on their phones" is rooted in "how dare they not give me their attention." - Fin de la conversation

@sarahjeong I got a detention once for reading a book instead of paying attention to Wall-E in my economics class - Fin de la conversation

@sarahjeong same - I used to get yelled at a lot for it and even had strangers yell at me while I was reading in public -
@sarahjeong people are always going to find something to police other's behavior about. I'm an introvert with anxiety - books/phones help me -
@lindseybieda it's also like... who the fuck are you and why are you worth my time

@sarahjeong "molly, we're on vacation. participate with us." - my mom, on every family vacay, my nose stuck in a book -
@mollypriddy@sarahjeong the number of pictures of me reading on vacation or at extended family holiday parties is staggering -
@pitytheviolins@mollypriddy the funny thing is I wish I had read more on vacation
