I tend to be pretty perfectionist. I strive for flawlessness and have high performance standards for myself. 
That's a good thing to some extent I think. Do you know what other personality traits perfectionists have often?
There are many positive and negative aspects, and in its maladaptive form, it drives people to attempt to to achieve the unattainable. 
That's true I suppose, do you know anything else interesting about psychology?
There's a whole branch of psychology called Abnormal psychology. They study unusual patterns of behavior, emotion, and thought. 
Wow that sounds interesting, do you know any famous abnormal psychologists by any chance?
Hmm, I don't know any famous ones, but there is a long history of man attempting to understand and control the behaviors we deem to be aberrant or deviant. The approach changes over time and among cultures.
