Tell us something you do slightly unconsciously - it may surprise you how much you have in common with everyone else.

I don't just randomly daydream. I either think of a new daydream plot or "rewatch" one of my favourites and schedule to daydream at a particular moment.

All my letters and numbers have colours, personalities and genders. I also give these characteristics to days of the week, months, the periodic table, symbols, colours etc. Numbers have a lot more drama going on compared to everything else with personalities. For me, numbers 3,5 and 7 are male and 4,6,8 are females. The numbers 1,2,0 and 9 change gender depending on what’s happening around them. 2 has a crush on 4 and has a love-hate relationship with 3 and 5. 6 and 4 are very kind and understanding people but people always take advantage of them. 6 knows how to deal with such people but 4 is very naive and unaware of all that so her friends 2,6 and 8 go behind those people. 7 used to date 8 when they were young but now 7 is a perv and he always tries to take advantage of 4. 9 is a full on bully constantly picking on numbers and they influenced 5 to behave rudely with even numbers. 3 is a spoilt brat who always wants everything to go his way and throws tantrums a lot so 1,2,4,5,6,7 and 9 have to always fulfil his demands even though it takes a toll on them. 8 doesn’t believe in doing that so 3 hates her. 1 and 0 always keep company with each other because of how small they are. Sometimes, they like to form big numbers like 10 and 100 so that they can multiply other numbers and make them big so that they feel better about themselves. 1 on their own goofs up a lot so they hate being multiplied on their own. 0 is kind of depressed but sometimes becomes a full on a*****e and turns everyone into 0 so that they feel bad. Negative numbers are a whole other story that I don’t feel like getting into at the moment

I have full conversations about myself with myself as other people..... I don't understand it.

I never get bored. Like, ever. I'm an author and I will make up little scenes or even re-write existing ones when I zone out. I'll be walking down the hallway at school and I'll do that. It's just natural now. I've been doing it for over a year.
Also, I assign colors to numbers and letters. T is dark green. A is red. E is maybe a light pink. P is green. 9 is red. 4 is purple. Me and my sister love arguing over the colors of letters and numbers.

when i'm in the car and there's music playing or sometimes even when there's not, i have to move some part of my body to the rhythm of the music AND line it up with an item outside (usually it's light poles or spaces between grass or road markers) and i've always done this and other people find it strange.

Read - and actually research things prior to opening my mouth...

i call it "going elsewhere". if i am bored or angry or stressed or otherwise unable to engage with what's going on around me, i go "elsewhere" deliberately. (i don't mean like in medical emergencies or a fire or something. just like where where i'm at and the environment i have isn't something i can engage in) Like my body is just a shell and my mind is hovering somewhere else inventing scenarios or changes to my life or sometimes even just replaying a cartoon or song i know fairly well. it does happen involuntarily every once and a while, and those ones suck more because forced "elsewhere" is replaying every possible negative scenario that can happen, but over all i've always thought it was kinda cool. didn't realize everyone didn't do this until my sister looked at me like i was crazy as an adult.

I slip out of realistic bad dreams easily. For example, I had a dream where I crashed my car into someone. While I was waiting for the police to approach me, I was very distraught and I couldn't tell if it was a dream but I had to try to not have this be real. My life and others would be horribly affected. So I started to lower myself to the ground thinking I'm either out of here or they will think I'm nuts. I laid my back on that rough pavement and sunk right into it. I was extremely relieved and grateful. Immediately popped into the next dream.

My favorite snack is jalapeños and melted string cheese wrapped in sandwich meat. Don't judge it's delicious.

I have a library of internal happy places. One is a simple flowering willow looking tree that grows by a stream. One is a complex house I've built in my head since I was 8ish, the center (main) room is giant manicured garden that opens up through all three stories and the ceiling is a clear stain glass window whose design reflects the design pattern of the plants on the floor. The lead between the panels is actually lead pipes cut in half with holes drilled in them, so when it rains it rains in a pattern on the floor/garden below. There are also streams throughout the house in the floor under glass. There is one happy place on another planet the main colors are kind of water color pastels. There is one happy place that is a balcony grown from a giant tree towards the top, it is in a forest of giant trees. Everyones tree apartment connects with an eclectic variety of bridges, and if you look down (if the mist clears) you see the forrest floor with dappled light. So many many more.

I'm not a furry, but I'll start making random animal noises, like meowing, if I'm bored and it's awkwardly silent. Usually starts an interesting conversation.

i like making up science fiction stories and thinking about what will happen in the future. i'm planning on making a book about it.

I can completely (and I mean completely) zone out on cue. I figured out how to do it a while back and all I really have to do is imagine something really boring (usually I imagine a bare concrete wall) and block out everything else and then boom I'm unresponsive and completely zoned out. But it usually stops after 5 minutes or so. Is that weird?

I slowly slide down onto the floor if I'm in a chair. Even in school, I keep having to stand up a little and sit back down. The floor is too tempting, it looks fun to lie down on

Sometimes, I pick something from my wide selection of fantasies and just pick a moment out on purpose just to daydream about it. I love being a breadstick, but I always have to go out in fear of getting eaten by a human. Even though I resent them for having devoured my fellow breadstick brethren, I still have always wanted to be a human. I imagine how this would feel by daydreaming.
(Seriously though, sometimes I tell people I'm unavailable because I'm right in the middle of a daydream. I don't have the effort to write down my daydreams but I've created quite a few worlds that I keep myself.)

I make Everything into a colour. Like A is red, buildings are blue and science is green.( yes, whatever I said didn't make sense)

I intentionally daydream, all the time. I also replay these same daydreams and usually incorporate them into my environment, like imagining celebrities randomly walking into the room I'm in and having a sort of meet and greet.
