I thoroughly enjoyed this . There was a lot here that we can use to explain our various friendships. what captured us about the person. what things make us resist another person. David Thomson is someone I could listen to forever. I have noticed people in my life trying out different gestures or expressions that I know they got from someone they must admire. It is a fun thing to observe in people. we all do it. Thankyou. Bring him back more often.

As someone who moved around a lot as a kid, I’ve found that even today I do a fair amount of mirroring—of accents, of mannerisms—as a way of trying to fit in.
