I can't explain why, but I watch everyone in public. It's a secret game to myself that I've never told anyone about until now. If the person is very much like me in the that small moment, they are the winner of the game and I stop playing. This can usually go to say the person could be doing anything, ranging from ticking to not making eye contact to anyone.
Do you ever do something like this? If so, how do you do it?
