The Trivia Mysterio.
In my opinion, one of the 2-3 most important Mysterios in the Mysterio revival.
Here is some free trivia: Zseni once admitted to being unable to argue effectively in person. She said she could be beaten verbally by any idiot. I can't remember why she said she was so poor in person, but I remember feeling very good about that information. I wondered if I could beat her in an argument. I wondered if she would mispronounce a fancy word.
B+

No, I pronounce all the fancy words right (yes, I use them in conversation.) But! I can either listen to someone talking or think about what they're saying, I can't do them both at the same time. You can see what a disadvantage that would be. Worse yet! If two or more people are talking around me, even if one of them is on the other side of the room, as long as I can make out the words I'll almost uncontrollably try to listen to both of them and not get either right. Worse yet! Since talking is soooooo much slower than typing or thinking - especially talking clearly, because I have to be careful to do that or I'll start talking at a fantastic rate that makes people stare at my mouth - when I talk I have to be very very orderly or else I'll lap myself thinking before I'm done saying whatever I'm saying. (I'll start one sentence and drift to the end of the paragraph without warning, for example.)

One of the cumulative effects of all this is that the more interesting the other people in a conversation are, the less interesting I am, and vice versa. In an argument, even with a stupid person, I miss half of what they say (it's so dumb I stop paying attention for seconds at a time/so interesting I'm stuck thinking about it while they make the next argument) and then cut the middles out of all my counterarguments (out of annoyed rage/profound fascination), so I sound like some kind of speed freak pushing insubstantial points.

I liked you better before you told everyone which Mysterios you were. It's a better schtick, being a mysterious Mysterio.
