Me when someone asks me to tell/teach them about one of my special interests…

Me: For real‽

Them: Yep

Me: But like, how much do you want to know?

Them: Everything

Me: Even if it’s a lot of information and takes an hour?

Them: Yes

Me: And you’ll stop me if it’s too much?

Them: Yep, I’ll stop you if it’s too much.

Me: 😮 hold on. let me think…ok… 😮‍💨 …so…non-stop talking for an hour possibly using props and a board/paper for illustrations. several related tangential topics come up and added to a list of topics to discuss later.
