It's called being a scientist. Your head's too full of more important things than playing the social game, back and forth banter is meaningless, and because you recognize that as fact, you don't bother with it

Oh, I definitely hope I am, or at least will be, but being externally regarded as one feels like a compliment: I hold analytic thought to be a one of the, if not the, most important mode of processing, and to have someone suggest that it is present even when I'm not systematically implementing it is more validating than I can explain.
