Talking in brackets to say the thing you actually mean is so Autism coded (I do it too)

I do this and it makes me wonder. It doesn't seem ~~normal~~ typical but it makes a lot of sense to me

You're allowed to use the word normal. It means something quite understandable for most, and only very sensitive people object to its use.

Haha. Nah, I wasn't being serious. I was making a reference to the "-typical" in the term neurotypical and thought it was funniee to point it out - like a wink wink nudge nudge thing

Pro-tip, a lot of the parenthesis are not as necessary as they seem at first and you can use the content as part of the sentence directly, making it sound more natural. Simply using other punctuation.

Asides feel more natural to me than weaving it in though. As in, it's also easier for me to understand if someone uses asides.
