Just nearly started a fight in the coffee shop accidentally whilst trying to be friendly and share a fact and the woman serving me thought I was being an arsehole. I then immediately spotted a common mistake in someone’s post and have had enough of being that arsehole for one day so I’ll not tell them the exciting fact about why it’s wrong

@BethanyBlack

I'll take "Tell me you're neurodivergent without telling me you're neurodivergent" for $100...

( /me waves hi in solidarity)

@StevenSaus *taps side of head* this baby holds so much ‘tism

@BethanyBlack @StevenSaus But did you start your explanation with the words "Fun fact: ..." ?

My son has done this for years. His classmates are very used to his "fun facts", and know to brace themselves 🤦‍♀️

Fun fact: they're usually quite gruesome and not at all fun 🤪

@GinevraCat no, I got bullied out of doing that at school

@StevenSaus @BethanyBlack
Occasionally I have responded to the hate by saying "I thought we were doing the Sharing-Fun-Facts game, no-one told me what we were actually doing". Which sometimes results in more hate.
