When I get included in a group text that has nothing to do with me and my phone continues to go off non stop for the next half hour.

Pseudoscience.

 

WATCH OUT! There's a lot of pseudoscientists out there. :p

 

 

 

- people that get mad/angry/worked up/irritated over stupid things i.e. swearing and getting angry in the car because the person in front of you forgot to turn their signal on before turning/driving too slow... like hey, chill the f down... smoke some weed.. relax...

 

 

But I don't want to smoke weed. :(

 

 

 

People that can't handle when they are so obnoxious they are ignored.
And when no one gives a fuck about them, they publicly express their butthurt complaining about how everyone is a new version of mean girls.

 

I already told you to fire that sissy princess. That shit ain't ANTM.

Block? Scream "I don't want to be here"? Smash cellphone?

People who turn the conversation around to being about themselves.

 

I can't when I something is pissing me off or something, and the person always manages to find an anecdote about when they had it worse. Okay, man, this was a competition all along and you won! Congrats for having it worse than everybody else.

Do you know what really grinds my gears... When my boss emails me, and part of the email I need more info from a coworker, but instead of cc'ing the coworker she tells me to email them.

 

You could have saved me a few seconds of my time by just cc'ing that person on the email. smh

The fact that my mom complains when she's driving and people are in the middle of the street, but when she's the pedestrian, she always walks in the middle of the street. And when I call out on her, she says there's a lot of space in the street... Go figure.

 

When someone can grow a full beard, but decide to go for a neckbeard. I know it's their choice and whatever, but it doesn't look cool. Just don't.

When people (work related) send me an email that has my first name spelled out in the email address, but go on to spell my name wrong in the body of the email.

 

I know it's probably auto-correct but still grind my gears.

This is my life every fucking day, except my poor name never stands a chance of being spelled correctly.

I tell people verbatim, one fucking letter at a time, and they still manage to add 2 extra letters to it. HOW FUCKING DUMB DO YOU HAVE TO BE? Oh Oh Oh and for some reason my middle name starts with an "N" (even though it doesn't), and every award I've gotten has an "N" for my middle initial.

Hahaha what the hell? People are so stupid

 

This happens to me all the time too though. I have a kinda long, uncommon first name name and my surname has two different spellings and god out of everyone I've ever met, @Elindoril is one of the few people who has ever spelt both of them correctly :V People will write down every sort of variation of my name or write down/say some name that is kind of similar but isn't mine. I don't get why these people don't just ask me how to spell/confirm it first? I'll be glad to help them?? It's not like it's a rude question or anything lmao

My name is Octávio Scapin (etc), but I only use those two.
People never get both right. They never write the "c" in my first name and the surname is always different. Escapin, Scapim, Scarpin...

Ugh, I know the feel, coming from a family of autism. My brother - 3 years old and has the severest form of all of us - can sometimes be unmanageable when he's overstimulated and people will just loudly proclaim my mom is a shitty parent and she should handle her terror child better. Apart from the fact he really isn't even a terror child (he just needs his space when he's upset and will fight to get some alone-time), it just hurts my mom so bad. Seriously, people have no idea.

There's a girl who hangs around my friends and I who seems to have nothing to talk about except her friends' personal stories. I have to sit there with my mouth shut tight because I'm not about that at all. Wish she'd fuck off.

@cassiopeiic Fuck, that makes me angry for you. I'm very sorry people are that ridiculous. I can only imagine what your mom feels when people say that shit to her. :/

It is frustrating how ableist people can be, which is the case with what happened with me today. I shared some personal insight about autism and someone without autism proceeded to tell me how it works and that I can overcome it. It completely invalidates what I say about my own experiences, as if I don't know myself enough to have knowledge on a subject that effects me.

Yea, it really grates me when i see dumb comments on social media where people carelessly throw the term around as if its nothing. It can be extremely tiring to handle them but it doesn't seem as through people have patience or even care for them, which is really bad. 

Although i like this term that i heard about autistic people - A computer that doesn't have windows isn't hopeless, but it can excel in other areas too. Argh, i wish i had something better to say but that's all i can muster. Hang in there!
