Most humans are absorbers. However, the quality of our common, striking absorbent feature varies. While some own an inferior version, others exhibit the superior type. An inferior absorber has a small store for adaptation or adjustment to social dynamics. They try in vain to assimilate beyond the capacity of their mental tank.
