Yes, I repeat a lot of things. But I have a reason, for examples songs, I repeat the same song again because I only like that one. And if I play a bunch of different songs randomly, I cannot catch up with those changes and it will be quite annoying to me. Because if I cant catch up with it, I don't understand it. If I don't understand something, I just hate it.

My favorite movie that I repeatedly watch is Lost in Translation.

You are sort of neurotypical but shows signs of autism. You probably enjoy intellectual activities more than socializing or maybe you enjoy socializing, but you aren't genius at it. You could be autistic, but may not be.

I have a verbal tic called palilalia. It's where I repeat words or entire sentences under my breath - but instead of repeating other people's sentences (as in echolalia), I repeat my own sentences.

I was like this as a kid. When I finished speaking, I would sometimes repeat the last word I said to myself under by breath. I remember my brother would mock me for it. It's not so much a problem now, though.
