> I worked for a guy who thought he was "helping" by barging in and distracting me, whenever he saw me in deep thought. I finally confronted him on it, and he thought this helped the creative process! My wife used to do a similar thing. Since the "deep thought" look is very similar to the "annoyed" look, she thought she'd lighten the mood by sending me funny things to look at and then demand I go look at them, and then she'd get annoyed that I didn't react. Sorry, honey, I'm juggling a mental model of multiple functions and classes. The Humor module is currently disabled. Like you, I finally had to set the boundary. When I'm in hyperfocus mode, DO NOT DISTURB unless it's important and can't wait. Don't even ask me if I want something to drink. Your assistance is not needed.
