I am also a terminal parentheticalist - it’s something you frequently get with NDs fwiw (Not that I know whether the other commenter is (but I most certainly am (and thus thought of as mention as to where it often happens)))

"impulse" strikes me as an odd word choice - this is literally how I (and as I observed, other NDs too) communicate
