You can ignore the mundane distractions and pleasures of an ordinary life. When you have free time, you tend to start up new projects or otherwise channel your energy in focused ways. If acting distracted and cool is part of your task at hand you have no problem with that, but if not you disilke just hanging out. This makes you seem impatient, driven, even inhumane when others try to relax. People admire your energy and will, but might not choose to be around you on their free time.
For a character to have an exceptional attribute, outside the "normal" range you must first purchase a specific Pulp Schtick for each sub-attribute. This not only adds a small extra cost, it also gives more or less defined special traits and extraordinary characteristics tied to such high ability scores. Unlike ordinary Pulp schticks, these offer no or very little benefit and some hindrance; they are more flaws than schticks but you still pay for them. If you want to be able to get exceptional attributes but do not want the effects of the schtick, you can pay double price to ignore the effect.
These schticks are considered genre schticks and are not used in all campaigns. See Schticks and Exceptional.
