Can any of us call ourselves genre savvy in real life?

Most people think that their viewpoint is the correct version of reality.

And, to be fair, if we go off of certain philosophical and sociological viewpoints, reality is totally a subjective thing that literally nobody perceives in the same way. For all I know, nothing I am experiencing is being experienced by a single other person in the world. I could just be locked up in a padded room imagining my entire life and not even realize it.

I think we can all be Genre Savvy for specific situations. It probably counts less as genre savvyness as simply being able to correctly identify a given context, though.

I'm pretty sure that's just called being well socially adjusted.

Nope, life does not have a genre. Simple as that.
