    I have a friend, whom I have like a very small common circle with. For some reason, they mentioned me to a coworker, like “I have this friend who does this and that”, mentioning some strange quirk I have. The coworker goes “Yo, do you mean <my name>?! I’ve met him once!”. Apparently I weirded them out enough to remember me years later.

      Knowing what the strange quirk is would add a lot to this anecdote. And maybe a clue as to your cultural milieu?

      Otherwise we’re all just thinking about every (self-percevied) quirk that we try to tell ourselves nobody else notices lol.
