Haha, just saw a response from a couple of days ago to a post from nearly a year ago that was taking what I said SO literally whilst also taking the worst possible reading of what I meant that I thought it had to be a joke right through to the end, when I went, “oh”.
I keep defending Mastodon from the overly literal accusations, but Christ some of you make it hard
Me replying to someone telling me they’d used the same argument that day “I swear we’re all living the same life!”
Them “We are absolutely not living the same life we all have things that happen to us at different points and different locations and we all learn in different ways. We are not sheep!”
Wow, okay.
@BethanyBlack "we" apparently needed a juicebox and a nap... actually, fuck. I want one now too. Was there enough for the whole class?
@BethanyBlack Fedi is like 75% queer autists, and mastodon dot social is something of a wildlife sanctuary from cismasc reply guys, are you sure you should be trying to defend this place from accusations of being overly literal?
@BethanyBlack
If there is one group who are famous for meaning everything they ever say to be taken literally, I am sure that it is professional comedians.
