Having prosopagnosia, being able to read character tags would be a godsend for me. So many conversations spent desperately trying to figure out whom I am talking to.
At one point, after I’d been at university for 4 months, I spent an entire lunch break talking to someone who I thought was someone completely different.
It’s weird. I tend to do quite well on those tests of famous people. But every time I’m in a meeting I have to scribble little notes to myself of what everyone’s names is. And I often have people coming up to me in work saying “hey, Liam” to which I have to do a merry dance of “hey, that-guy-who-works-in-this-department-maybe?”
I only have a mild form of it but I kind of “bookmark” people based on their hair. … of course, if they get a haircut or dye their hair then I have no idea who they are anymore. ^=__=^;;

I actually like the “serious moments with realistic faces” thing from this era of Walky.

Thanks, Oprah!
It’s 2017, and I’m pretty sure Walky still can’t check the character tags.
He can, he’s just not that much of a fact-checker.
Neither is Joyce, which is why she doesn’t know about Jocelyne.

Holy cow, I didn’t know that was a thing. That’s one serious condition, and I read it’s affecting 2,5% of the population?

Similar. I have tendencies toward it related to autism.
You thought it Anti-Joyce, BUT IT WAS ME, DIO!
