I still use cursive and a checkbook, a physical dictionary, and have a VCR player in the house I still used before ditching the TV it connected to. That should be the next half of the meme; which on the list do you still use. 💀

This is so cool and sweet!!! What a lovely idea. 🥰

Gotta train Gustav to bring me brownies before he flops onto me for weighted blanketdog time, good call.

I probably took up at least 10 of the 60 seconds trying to think of another word besides fornicate but alas, it was locked in so I had to be like uhhhh SORRY ABOUT THIS fornicate.

Sulubrious was less contextually embarrassing but I did say it in a very silly voice AS YOU MUST!!! before moving on 😭

I automatically sorted all 16 words into their 4 categories of 4 words each by the 2nd time, so even the eval dr was kinda lol having to ask the eventual "which words in the list were [category]" questions since...that's how I was answering them in the first place. Go go pattern recognition powers~~

We've both had a very big day and deserve MANY nap :3

This is in line with the general feedback I'm getting about it so I'm feeling much better about it now - like I know I do have a record of misreading people, for sure, but jfc that test was so bonkers hard, I'm glad it's not a "nt people find this totally easy and natural!" thing.

Ok this makes me feel better! I know I for sure have a record of misreading people/not noticing facial etc cues, so I wasn't expecting a *perfect* score, but still, MAN that was brutal.

OK THANK YOU like the whole time was one big internal scream for context but that one especially I was just ??!! at 😭

Ok but what if you slip your artist a hundo at your next planned tattoo so they draw idk a stick figure with a giant wang somewhere before getting into your next big piece

But also I honestly thought I had a better grasp of reading people, enough to make that type of test much easier than it actually was. So I'm pretty :/ about that. :/

>they were showing OR the emotion I've learned people are often showing which can be different so that was zero help. (No shade at eval dr, she was very nice and again, offered off-hours + dog-included test day for my benefit, so only good things to say about her)

That stupid "pick one of the four possible emotions this person is showing, going only by this picture of their eyes and eyebrows" test had me wanting to punch through the wall tho, and the eval dr only said "~pick what feels right" 🙄 when I asked if I should choose the emotion I instinctively felt>

I told the evaluating doctor very frankly that if I had to do both parts in one day like they typically do, I would have been curled up on the floor hyperventilating by the second test, so - VERY grateful for the separation, very grateful for Guus as a grounding point. Phwooof.
