Play along! Here are the points to agree or disagree with (strongly if you wish, or neutral).
I detest human drama.
I generally dislike other people.
My social circle is generally pretty small or non-existent.
I hate social occasions like parties and reunions.
I mock other people's mistakes and failures.
The earth will be better off after a global catastrophe that wipes out the human race.
I have more common sense than those around me.
People can't handle my blunt honesty.
I have no patience for ignorant people.
The idea of fitting into my culture feels absurd.
I tend to view myself as somehow distinct from the majority human species.
Others are merely going through the motions and going through a script.
I do not expect anything good from people by default.
Animals are better than humans.
To get along with others I need to act normal and it's exhausting.

 

Nick Capper still likes to work in factories every now and again.

Coathanger factory? Good.

Paper folding factory? Not so good.
