*hard to convey this one, but i mean you speak to yourself as if you are two different people in the same body or something. the one speaking, and you. you encourage yourself or speak to yourself by name, as if the person speaking isnt the name, isnt you. i dont do this one, and it always kind of seemed nonsensical to me.

**since i do this one i have more to say than the character limit allows: i mean i explain things as if to an audience. i may already have the information in my head, but i feel the need to walk about and gesticulate as if im actually trying to explain the concept and information to someone watching, even if no ones actually there. not like, an imaginary friend, but an anonymous crowd-audience watching and listening. and i feel like i need to start from the beginning, and actually structure my words and thoughts to properly convey what i need. sometimes i do this as i go, in order to figure out a problem, kind of like talking to a rubber duck. other times, i already have something figure out, and have no one else to tell, so i tell the crowd, basically. the crowd never responds, nor do i really "see" the crowd, no do i put that much thought into the crowd itself, but i still speak and move as if there was one.

***what i mean by this one is basically, you say and do things as if your brain is a sounding board. you dont address anyone, not even yourself, and you dont speak as if you need to explain things you already know. you have your thoughts, and youre essentially just having your thought process out loud. you speak and act as if its only you, one person, there. you dont need to explain things you already know.
