Considering psychopaths typically speak in cold, monotone voices

Where did you get that idea from?

Same question...

Seriously, is it a tiktok thing?

Where are you getting this stuff from?

Quick edit:

Im just legitimately curious where you heard this stuff from, that's it. If you don't want to say, also cool. Not a big deal.

If you're getting frustrated I'm not explaining anything, it's because you haven't asked a single question.
