I studied psychology at university and apparently the discovery of this information can ONLY be met with one of the following two questions:
1) "So you can read minds and/ or body language?"
2) "So you could give me therapy?" Usually followed up (before I have a chance to say a single word) with a totally hilarious joke about how they are probably the craziest person ever and I'd have a field day with their mind. Wasn't funny the first time, still not funny 50 times down the line and yet every one of them bursts into manic laughter after saying this.
Also telling people I'm vegetarian has resulted in the same single word coming up in every single person's response - "why?".
I gave a full explanation at first but after a dozen or so people glazing over while I was mid sentence I switched to "none of your business". Apparently that's rude so I've adjusted it to "oh you know, moral stuff" which is apparently the quickest and easiest way to end that conversation without making a mortal enemy.
