Oh, this is so me! I learn some shit, I'm in a honey moon period on it and want to do nothing but talk about it endlessly, and then I get to a point where I hit a wall, I've learned as much as I can understand, anything beyond that level of knowledge requires other, more specialized knowledge, and I can't realistically devote the time to it, and now I don't even want to talk about it, because I feel like a fraud, as I know there's a whole world of knowledge on the subject that just isn't accessible to me
