And it has all kinds of implications and context and shit.

How the fuck am I supposed to tell what’s just people doing things at random and what’s a part of all-singing-all-dancing-shit-show the neurotypicals call “social norms”? Down with NTs.

Honestly while it’s really fucking annoying that refusal to participate could result in some silly neuronormo interpreting a completely innocuous action as an offense, and it can cut you off from social shit, I think it’s basically the only way. The same button never does the same thing twice. Screeching rn.

    I often ask my wife “are you hungry” and then we both have a discussion about both our hunger levels and actual willingness to eat, lmao

    We really do need a Gayroller-2000 style emote for neurotypicals.

        madeline-smug That’s pretty cool actually, we arrived at the optimal solution individually. Convergent Neurodiverse Evolution!!

        Ikr, imagine having to ask weirdo questions instead of just saying “Hey wanna get food with me?” or something? Common neurotypical L toriel-glare

      But this makes sense because i want to know other people’s hunger levels to make a decision on what to do about it. The followup question is usually about what kind of food and when and coming to a consensus on what eataging will satisfy our differing hunger levels.

      If I’m asking a rando colleague out to lunch my question literally just is. “Pub?” And i get a yay or nay
