I just default to awkward laughter, nominal response, and deflecting question. So charming 🌹
You have requested to hear MORE TRIVIA I HAVE STORED IN MY HEAD. To cancel, please press (ERROR: KEY NOT FOUND).
I used to do this, but I've evolved to explaining my biggest weaknesses and how I cope with them. I try to be earnest about it instead of pretentious; not a humble brag, but a moment of genuine vulnerability.
I don't like answering shallow questions, so unless I'm trying to get something from the person, this filters out people who care too much about normality to every like me. I'd always mess up and reveal myself to be a weirdo eventually, so I might as well save their time by not pretending.
If you're in an interview for a job or whatever, talk about things on your resume/cv/personal statment. Whatever it was, it got you into this position and everything you will say from your resume will be save.
