A Day on Planet Earth

"You pile of pillocks..."

A thread documenting your contact with the neurotypical world

*2 minutes into a pleasant conversation in my local store*

ME: "I'm autistic."

The shopkeeper literally takes a step back, as if Autism is contagious.

------------

SALESMAN: "Good morning! I'm from Encyclopedia Britannica."

ME: "Is that the one with the spaceship?"

SALESMAN: "No, that's Battlestar Galactica. Goodbye."

Okay, that last one didn't happen. Yet. Keep us updated with your daily adventures on the strange Planet of the Neuroconfusings.

  • Back home, listening to the latest Suede album; the one I ordered on New Year's Eve night, but was sent to the Republic by accident.

    Laundry on, but I accidentally put a Holland and Barrett lavender soap bar in with it. A reflection of how stressed I am.
