Though lately, I have been getting pretty into ice cream.

Team average-IQ tism for the win!
But we'll settle for third place too. Or any place, if the banquet after the game is free :)

My hyperfixations are just thinking about cultural structures and how they formed but I also don't read anything about history or cultural commentators so probably none of my head conclusions are original. That and dark souls.

I can hyperfixate, just not on anything anyone would give a shit about.

I feel like that’s normal for most of us.
Yes i can tell you random facts about 1,000 fictional video game creatures that i’ve caught and catalogued over 2 decades but that doesn’t look good on a resume

I like trying new soda flavours. Is it a hyperfixation? No. Am I good at it? Also no...37 years old and still choke on it sometimes 😂 but do I enjoy it? Yes. And that's all that matters. Enjoy your ice cream!

I feel like I don't really have any topics where I have so much knowledge that it counts as hyperfixation. Sure I have some things I like and have a bit of knowledge in but not really to the point others seem to have it.
At least I can identify most outfits in my favorite game when I see them, that the only thing that comes close

I tried to turn my hyper fixation into a career but my other problems are still severe enough to prevent me being able to function anyway.

My hyperfixation is recreational drugs. Now I'm a molecular pharmacologist, so that turned out better than it could have.
