    Had a guy at my bus stop do this every morning. Full volume with some cartoon stuff. I wonder if they even think at all about other people ever. Are we just npcs in their world?

    My coworker is literally doing it right now… Somehow he has a seemingly endless supply of random videos with the annoying chipmunk voice changer old people find hilarious for some reason.

      best open office i was in, we took turns being in charge of overhead music. as long as you weren’t in a meeting, you could be in charge for an hour. we’d draw lots.

        I’m honored that you think I’m as smart as an artificial intelligence.

            The dog buried it in Nancy’s back yard but Bruce found out about it and dug it up and gave it to someone else’s dog. Who knows what that dog does with it but if I had to wager a guess I’d say he’s using it as a sounding rod.

    I know this guy who seemed to be unfamiliar with social norms. Basic shit like saying please and thank you. Then I met his mom, who was equally as ignorant as he was.

    We went to her fast food, and I watched them both just stare at the cashier, grab their food, and just walk off. There were a few other examples of clearly missed social agreements that we all take for granted.

    I’m 90% sure they weren’t being cruel psychopaths to lowly cashiers.

    But I’m also not sure where the line is for being neurodivergent versus just being an asshole.
