Showerthought: Binging shows left me with nothing to say at dinner

Honestly, I was at a family meal and my cousin asked about my job. Tbh, I blanked and just talked about a plot twist from 'Stranger Things'. Ngl, it got quiet and I felt so out of place. I see now I lean on show stories when I run out of real chat. It's like my brain is full of episodes but empty for normal talk. So I'm mixing in more podcasts about daily life stuff. Kinda funny how a binge habit can mess with your social skills.

Yeah, that binge habit messing with social skills is so real. I see it all the time where people struggle to talk about anything but the shows they watch.
