I have talents that I'm not supposed to have: I can tell who crushes on who by how they stand, I can read strides, I can hear the tonal differences between an alto and a soprano singing the same line so clearly that to me they sing entirely different notes, and I can read through the lines and tell when a person doesn't to be writing at all. That, is what makes me a snob, because I cannot abide a person putting pen to paper or fingers on keys when they don't to, when word choice is not as relevant and demanding and essential to them as breathing and syntax is about being and not about being .
