I’ve been told I’m intimidating, several times, by several people. Since I’m very small, and I’m actually very kind, I really do not get that. I am loud, though, and I’m really not good at suffering fools, so maybe.
My favorite description of me ever was a friend who said “you are like an ambulatory Tesla coil.” I thin it was a polite way of saying “hyper” but I like it anyway.
