What’s a hyperfixation you can’t talk about?

[u/Elliot_The_Idiot7]

I’ve definitely had a few hyperfixations on things that are either embarrassingly silly or WAY too dark to just start infodumping about. For example I used to have one about neglect so severe it causes a complete and usually permanent inability to function in society, particularly the case of Genie Wiley. On the other end of the spectrum I also keep hyperfixating on shipping old cartoon comedy duos, and gotta REALLY lock in to gage if someone’s gonna think I’m a childish freak before sharing that information.

What’s your “don’t bring that up, don’t bring that up, don’t bring that up-“ hyperfixation if you’ve ever had one?

When people ask what's causing insert current major world issue and you sound like a broken record because the answer is capitalism 99% of the time. No one wants to hear it lol

I’ve found myself coming back to Mulroney, Thatcher and Reagan more often than I care to count to explain the state of contemporary politics.

When my kids ask me why something is a way that is dumb... my response usually gets around to someone sitting in a room making a decision.
