Sure enough on my way back, some guy intentionally slows down while driving to ask me if I forgot my bike. I am a freaking magnet for weirdness, I can't even do anything remotely out of the ordinary or people will notice. Why is this? I have no idea but I will probably seek out the answer for the rest of my life because I am obsessive about understanding it. It makes me feel trapped, like society is holding me in this force field of allowable behavior.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06001020811877167957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466691337834051176.post-56776957997614641712010-10-06T00:15:48.607-04:002010-10-06T00:15:48.607-04:00I've never seen Daria

That's what I would do. That is, if I actually had the nerve to approach a bunch of autistic people and ask them for their artwork. Which I don't. But I think it's a good idea anyway, so good luck if you manage to do it. <br /><br />"because I'm not going to agonize over phrasing something in a super normal way, I will instead intentionally phrase something in a very twee, stylized, overdramatic way."<br /><br />Holy crap, I totally do that. I either do that or go into Daria mode.lux aeturnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00391526866406089000noreply@blogger.com
