Define “myself” lol, which mask do they want
Seriously, what are you supposed to say?
I’m not autistic and I don’t know either. So I became a dad now I can literally talk shit (he has diarrhea 😱) for hours on end.
Did you become a dad so you had more talking points? /s
You joke but it did make my social life a lot easier. You keep meeting other parents (at doctors, community organized activities, for playdates and so on) and instantly have something to talk about. Oh mine has the shits, mine won’t latch, ours started rolling on his belly last week.
Then you start gifting and receiving gifts because yours grew out of his sleeping bag or the inlaws gave something absurd for your situation but someone else might find it useful and you develop actual adult friendships.
I had the exact same experience with becoming a parent! It’s a super easy thing that almost anyone can talk about without being too personal, touchy or deep
“My name is Aaron and I like trains”
I like Turtles
Maybe it’s easier for you to tell what you do instead of what you are (or like, or think, or feel …)?
Yes, good point, but I still wish people asked less ambiguous and vague questions. I don’t know, my mind just goes blank for a moment there.
Proceeds to narrate my life from the beginning
Like most people, I was born at a really young age…
“I forgot I am a human” five hours later “…and that’s how ai will lead the proletariat in a revelation”
personality
has stopped respondingBtw. i like it when these
memescartoons make people respond. Else i’m quite averse. Up to the point that i’m ignore-button triggered. …… Uh, my goodness now that i know that the word “meme” has been coined by Richard Dawkins, of all people … i’m compelled to dislike it more than ever. :-)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MemeWhat’s your issue with Dawkins, out of curiosity?
as soon as anyone asks me anything about myself I immediately forget literally everything and become dumber than a goldfish
When people ask me things like “What’s your favorite song” I’m like “uhhhhhh idk I don’t remember any songs” every time
It’s especially hard for me since my favorite anything changes. I don’t like being restrained to one favorite thing all the time. It really depends on the situation. For example, with music, it depends on my current situation and emotional disposition. Sometimes I really like a super sad song, and sometimes I like an exciting energetic song. Having long-term favorites is something I don’t understand.
That and writing descriptions on websites
I put everything into ChatGPT now to make words sound human.
The inverse is when I write accessibility descriptions. Those get really detailed
I deadass have a list on my notes app to remember what my hobbies and likes are 💀
