No, don't mind me. Just rambling.*yawn* Did you say something, Lyn?
I listen far more than I talk, don't really keep up with movies or TV shows, like to think about and discuss topics like religion, politics, and philosophy, and am not outgoing with most people I don't know well.
I have trouble shutting up with deep conversations. About 70% of what I talk about on a daily basis: politics, human behavior, Literature and symbolism in it, philosophy the list goes on and on. Maybe that's why I have few friends...
Many people find my preference of using few or no words in conversation very boring.
I'm sooooo jealous. :cover:Everyone is facsinated by my profession, but once they'll see me in the field leaning over a human skeleton arguing with an anthropologist about whether a part of the arm is the Ulna or Radius they'll soon rather go back to their air conditioned office jobs and espresso machines.
Even Spongebob finds that boring!-I can sit for 3 hours+ watching SpongeBob.
[youtube]LdUSpiC8MsU[/youtube]Oh yeah, I forgot. I love to watch baseball. Considered one of the most boring games out there, it's one of my favorite sports to watch. I see nuances in the game others don't. Things don't just happen with the stolen base or the home run. Field positioning, pitch location, the batter's adjustment on the bat and in the batters box, and decision-making while running the bases (when to run and when to hold up)....I love it all.
Finally, player body mechanics, especially pitching, is something I like to watch. It started back about 10-11 years ago when I got into an online discussion over the course of several months with a kineisiologist over the pitching style of then-Chicago Cubs pitcher Mark Prior. He was being hailed as the young phenom with a bright future because of his "perfect mechanics", but myself and my online colleague began breaking down his mechanics and felt very differently than the hype. I used to be active on the MLB discussion boards, so I offered my analysis there at the time, and I was predictably scoffed. I insisted that Prior had very risky mechanics that would result in an injury if he didn't adjust how he rotated his shoulder during the pitch release.
Turns out I was right. He went down with an injury and had to have Tommy John surgery on his elbow, and he was never the same since. Every now and then I analyze players for fun, but not as closely as I did back then.
You can all wake up now.
