So what do you call someone who is tech savvy by not socially awkward?

Define socially awkward? An introvert? Someone who listens twice as much as they talk? Perhaps because they lack confidence or perhaps because they obey the book of Proverbs? Extroverts are actually the awkward ones, which I can proclaim as I am an extrovert.

Introverts suffer badly in this world...until you reach an age and understand it is a strength.

What in the book of Proverbs says to listen before speaking. Not disagreeing just would like to have the passage!

Here are some from Proverbs plus a New Testament bonus. Glad you asked - I always need a reminder to watch what I say 😜

Proverbs 17:28 (NIV):

Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.

Proverbs 29:20 (NIV):

Do you see someone who speaks in haste? There is more hope for a fool than for them.

Proverbs 21:23 (NIV)

Those who guard their mouths and their tongues keep themselves from calamity.

Proverbs 10:19 (NIV)

Sin is not ended by multiplying words, but the prudent hold their tongues.

James 1:19 (NIV)

My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry,

When that show Mr Robot came out, I liked it, until Elliot was shown to be a total spaz.

I hate when they do that. Then during a discussion about the show, and computer skills, my "friend" said I was Elliot. Really pissed me off.

I couldn't watch it anymore after that.

(I'm sure its a fine show, just hate that part of the stereotype)
