Oh and whats more, for my 21st my own MOTHER bought me a Bing Bang Theory trivia book, I've never watched the show in any meaningful way.
Why am I a meme to my own parents?

Just say:

Just think of it this way: you've transcended humanity so far that the only way normies can hope to relate to you is to conpare you with the smartest person they know. Sheldon.

Nah, I go commando because of an injury.

I just say engineer now and let their imaginations run wild.

>get a summer job
>boss asks me what I'm taking
