I'm bored and tired, and in an attempt to try and wake myself up here, I thought I'd start a fun off-topic discussion.
A lot of times people have something about them that often catches others by surprise when they really get to know them.
For me... it's the fact that most people underestimate my level of nerdiness.
I dunno what it is that people initially think about me, but when I tell people that I play video games and other stuff like that they don't realize to what level I end up getting into things. They think it's just a passing hobby (and now-a-days it kind of is, more often than not, now that I'm busy with photography, but I used to be way more hardcore about it).
Recently some friends of mine got me into Hearthstone, for example (Does anyone play? ). I've never played WoW, but I kept seeing them play this game and I got curious, so I went home one day, whilst I was super hungover and knew I wasn't going to be productive anyway, and downloaded it and got hooked.
I played it quietly for a while, because even though THEY played it, for some reason I thought they'd... I dunno, think I was weird for also wanting to play, haha. But I brought it up a few weeks later with one of them, and he helped me build a better deck, and he's got me into all this streaming and e-sports sh*t now, haha, and I am now outwardly obsessed with this game.
So...
What is something that most people don't know about you and find surprising and unexpected once you let them in on your little secret?
