This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's probably because you're autistic that you only think of this as odd and not for the specific case being presented.
I was using odd as a catchall term, plus I was tired and couldn't think of better phrasing. And I was using it to try and question why is it generally a common thing to label something as autism just because it isn't a socially 'acceptable' response.
Non autistic people can be just as socially inept. And not every autistic person is socially inept. So it's just tedious seeing a lot of stuff labelled as autism, when it could be a plethora of other things.
Yeah sure, but those patterns are super clear and obvious to someone who's not autistic. You probably do just a lot of non autistic stuff being labeled that way by dumb people hooked on the new buzzword though.
