6 | I tend to listen more than I talk, read more than I watch, and I live in UsefulNotes/KansasCity.\ |
7 | I also tend to [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny lose track]] of where I am in conversations, so CaptainObvious helps me focus.\ |
8 | Part of this page is used as a SandBox, so [[BlatantLies don't believe everything]]. Especially the [[AFormYouAreComfortableWith page layout]]. |

124 | !Tropes Applied To Daily Life: |
125 | * AttentionDeficitOohShiny: If you talk to me, expect some... 'zoning out'.... (Especially if I feel the conversation is a monologue; which usually involve things I don't feel an interest in.) |
126 | * UsefulNotes/{{Autism}}: [[DelayedDiagnosis Diagnosed as an adult]], November 2021. (Reportedly, an "Adult" diagnosis is rare.) I also have "social anxiety", which would make 'new conversation' even more of an achievement. |
127 | ** NoSocialSkills: I have ''some'', but the UsefulNotes/{{autism}} precludes having 'the full set'; especially understanding/predicting intentions. |
128 | * BooksVsScreens: I would rather read a book than just have a TV on. (But when I do watch TV, it tends to be shows on Creator/{{PBS}}.) |
129 | * CaptainObvious: This really helps me, especially if you want to "joke around" (e.g. "Hey, let's have fun.") |
130 | %%* DrowningMySorrows: A '''big''' character flaw.%%And, when I'm being depressed, it's "honestly" called 'Drinking myself '''stupid'''.' |
131 | * FacialScruff: It occasionally happens. |
132 | * GoMadFromTheRevelation: Consider-- you're reading a page, see a ''really'' good example, nod to yourself... then realize YOU WOULDN'T HAVE THOUGHT THAT WAY IF YOU HADN'T READ IT. And you realize '''someone really thinks that way'''! (Even if it makes sense....) |
133 | * HeadphonesEqualIsolation: "I support this message." |
134 | ** The "honest" version: I like listening to the radio, over starting a conversation. If you see me take at least one earbud out on my own, that means I 'really' want to talk/say "hi"/find out how you're doing. At least I've noticed you are there.... |
135 | * MustHaveCaffeine: gimme-gimme-gimme... Especially energy drinks.... |
136 | ** Depending on the day, I can drink 4-6 energy drinks, and either three cups of coffee or four cups of tea. |
137 | * NotGoodWithPeople: Type: Shy. ItsNotYouItsMe. (See: [[UsefulNotes/{{Autism}} I'm autistic]], so...) |
138 | ** Spoiler: [[spoiler:I think "What's the script?", and very much aware that I don't actually ''know'' what the 'script' is for interpersonal interaction. I don't do well with being by myself (as in, no interaction ''at all''; but as long as I'm 'in charge'...).]] |
139 | * RomanticAsexual: Dating is fine, but... |
140 | * SoulSuckingRetailJob: Started thinking of some of my jobs as this. |
