Exactly, some people think so much that they basically live in their heads, most things outside of it considered uninteresting. For example, they may see two people having diner and discussing their recent holiday and the TV show they watched last night. To the thinker, this is all incredibly unimportant, mundane and boring. Yet those two people had a good time, the thinker not so much. Thinkers also over-think, are risk averse and always worried. They may understand that the financial system is due for another crash, that war is about to break out, polarization increasing, and all kinds of bad things trending in the wrong direction. This superior understanding leads to misery compared to just being ignorant about it. Thinkers are frustrated by media and social media catering to the non-thinkers. All this effort the thinker went through to get a deep understanding seems just pissed away, irrelevant. Thinking is overrated. The human brain is an advanced defensive device. It's job isn't to think for the sake of it, it's job is to keep you alive. Most of the things it's feeding you isn't even true. It doesn't have to be.
