I like to repeat words or phrases I hear that stick out in the way they're said. Some of my top hits:

• Soup or salad?
• Hello! (in an automated call voice)
• MoviePhone brought to you by Y-100 and the New Timesss
• I took a piss on a development deal from Sony...and Def Jam (Immortal Tech lyric)
• Definitely Kmart...definitely (Eminem)
• Welcome! You've got mail! (AOL)
• Is that sohce (sauce)? Is that extrahh (extra)? (funny TikTok skit)

Anyway, I was going down my list of words ereyesterday. When I was done, a friend that was over yelled, "Frank and beans!" from across the house, and now I think I'm seriously intellectually disabled (aka ret----d) and everyone is just being nice to me. I mean, I've achieved a high level of education and professional impact, but maybe it was with a lot of support, leniency, and accommodations. Kind of like people would be like, "Good job, big guy! You're doing great!" to my face, but when I leave, "You see? If you give them proper support, they can flourish."

Anyone else been through something similar?

Edit: Okay, I'm over it. The post was made mostly in jest, though I did have some slight doubt at first...and some lingering doubt still. Honestly, I know it doesn't really matter. To me, I'm me and confidently happy with that. I'm more concerned for how perceive me so I have an idea on why people interact the way they do with me.
