But why do you think that you can't talk about things that interest you as small talk? Sharing interesting facts about stuff is absolutely small talk! You're saying you don't want to small talk, you want to info dump, but those aren't mutually exclusive!
Autism, bro.
I am capable talking about whatever you define as small talk, but its not enjoyable for either of us if I do. Like I said, I'm there for real problems or philosophical musings for deep issues of life.. and the infodump process is enjoyable for me, but that is NOT small talk.
You're saying it's simultaneously enjoyable but not enjoyable?
I really am not interested in finding a third way to express this to you. You're free to do whatever mental gymnastics are required to continue to hold an absolute belief on this topic, which has no meaning.
