    You know you push boundaries by making people engage with you in conversation when they don’t want to? Yet apparently continue doing it? And that fascinating you?

    That’s very confusing to me. Uh, are you neurodivergent…?

      Read the useless facts, memorize the useless facts, and have the urge to regurgitate the useless facts to anyone with working ears. That’s Asperger’s in a nutshell.

      Great for engineering and programming. Not so great for interacting with regular humans.

      I think impulse control is a factor, they just have to talk to that person and can’t wait any more.

      Well this is different from my experience … my whole working life I’m accused of being the antisocial one because I’m not tripping balls at everyone in the morning.

      There I was sipping coffee and desiring my space for contemplation… and that is the ‘norm’?

      I feel seen.
