A thread about autists

Saw the “Grind my Gears” thread:

Started to write a post. Thought process then proceeded in roughly the following pattern:

  1. What’s something that bugs me? I could write a comment about that.
  2. Hang on, maybe that’s something that bugs only me. This thread is apparently supposed to be about things that bother everybody.
  3. What’s something that bothers everybody that bothers me?
  4. Nope, those are probably just me-things as well.
  5. Hang on, this is getting tangled.
  6. I know from long and painful experience that if I push past that tangled feeling and say something, I’ll probably regret it later.
  7. Oh, fuck it, don’t say anything.

Aspergers grinds my gears.
