Is... Is this a win? Wasting 2 hours of your life in an attempt to teach a lesson to some rando you'll never see again?

hello!

time you enjoyed wasting is not wasted time.

If you enjoy it - it’s never wasted time

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Time is unwasted if you enjoyed spending waste!

Are we just saying the same thing?

Time's fun when you're having flies!

Fruit flies like a yeast

Time is never wasted when you’re wasted all the time?

I don't think the 2 hour ramble was an intentional attempt at teaching a lesson.

Feels more like a failure on the part of her date. A big part of active listening is keying in on things you're interested in and leading the conversation in that direction.

People with ADHD rambling at me for an hour was what I did before podcasts.

Yeah and based on what the dude said, I don't really peg him as big on "active listening".

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 weeks ago

If it was fun for you then yes (nothing wasted in that case).

She was going to be talking anyway

Isn't the point that her actual neurological condition made it harder for her to control herself from going on a long rant, simultaneously explaining and demonstrating how his diagnosis isn't as bad as he thinks it is?
