1. I can tell by the way they wear their hair

2. Thats the neat part, you don’t

3. When they’re talking like a salesman in a normal social setting. I can’t count how many times I’ve encountered this.

4. When they tell you how smart or honest or funny they are, rather than just being smart or honest or funny.

5. In there tone of voice.

6. when in between takes of acting the part, it is obvious their mind is elsewhere

7. They brag.

8. They talk like they’re trying to convince you of something. They talk at you instead of with you

9. They look like they are playing the piano, but they are not.

10. Overcompensating or over-telling a story; making themselves out to be the hero or focus of a story ect

11. Obvious stitching? Joints moving at odd angles?
