This is one of those disadvantages that sound like it would reflect the peculiar habits of a character, but people don't notice that this is way more intense than they probably want (aka. "self diagnosed Aspergers syndrome").

As a quirk it's perfectly okay and probably quite common, but as written it's either clinical or comedical. On the other hand, if the GM doesn't call you out on it all the time, you might get off rather cheap.

One of the reason I liked the "Pointless" flaws a lot better.
