Image: bingo card labeled “bad at being a person bingo”

For the sake of describing this card through a narrative, the columns from left to right will be letters A thru F, and the rows top to bottom will be numbers 1 thru 5.

Squares

1B: LOOK AT ALL THE PRETTY THINGS OMG SHINY

1C: elaborate daydreams

1D: something is wrong but i don’t know what

1E: why is my backpack full of rocks and papers from a year ago

2A: puts things down; where’d it go

2B: scared of human

2C: having a body is weird wtf

2E: i’m tricking people into thinking i’m one of them

3A: am i just not trying hard enough

3B: doesn’t eat; why do i feel bad

3C: error 404 motivation not found

3D: stares at wall for an hour

3E: walks out into the snow without a winter coat

4A: “why can’t you do this?” i don’t know

4B: on second thought that was a terrible decision

4C: time goes slow and then fast

4D: walks into wall

4E: World’s Most Messy Room

5A: sorry i didn’t respond to any of your messages for six months

5B: weird sense of humor

5C: how do i tell if people like me

5D: how are other people so good at talking

5E: idk if i’m coming off as creepy all the time

Edit: I just realized that I absentmindedly relabeled the columns from BINGO to ABCDE. I like mine more anyway.

    Blackout with two asterisks:

    Puts things down, where’d it go: I usually don’t do this, but only because I am very deliberate and systematic about where I put things. Similar to the sock question. (Do socks bother you? No, because I have a system)

    Walking into walls (and other stationary objects): I don’t do this much anymore, but I did quite a bit as a child.

    If I didn’t have aphantasia I’d probably have row 1 box 3 marked as well. I get lost in thought, but it’s more logistical planning for eco transformation type stuff (how to convert parking garages into hydroponic farms and the like)

    Also messy room is whole house, and I’m doing a lot better with that, but as a kid I cleaned my room with a rake more than once.

      Is there a rule that daydreams have to be visual? Spending lots of time thinking up extremely detailed strategies for unlikely hypothetical scenarios definitely qualifies as “elaborate daydreams”, in my opinion.

      I mean it’s isomorphic to a bingo, so that’s cool.

      nerd shit

      An isomorphism is a structure-preserving reversible mapping. Pick any board configuration with a bingo and the same number of marked squares. There exists an isomorphism mapping from your board to a board configuration with a bingo. Specifically, by switching pairs of squares until you get a bingo, the record of switches you made defines an isomorphism that takes your board to a bingo board.

      Practically, this just means that you just have at least 5 squares.
