    I think part of the point here is going over people’s heads. She used her hyperfixation to confuse and bore the man to deflect any opportunity for him to flirt with her or ask her out until she was able to leave.

    Everyone saying “jokes on you, this bus girl is so my type” would also have their ear talked off and never given the opportunity to ask her out.

      Maybe I’m naive, but I want to think that plenty of people actually stoked about that kind of situation would rather ask to elaborate on the West Mexico civilization instead.

        I think you’re right, I’m just responding to the people (who are all over this thread) saying that this is part of their manic pixie dream girl fantasy.

        Even the op explains that this is a method to avoid the guy trying to pick her up.

      Dude, I just want to talk about Mesoamerica. I got Tezcatlipoca set as my profile banner. I’m a fan boy.
