If you're wondering what this has to do with autism I'm getting to it.

The Eternal Conflict format is two conflicting juxtapositional internal struggles. For example: The Eternal Conflict but it's thinking glistening shower water is sexy vs. the transition from going dry to wet.

Can you provide an example of one of your memes?

Aside from the one in the body text, I had one earlier. The Eternal Conflict but it's looking androgynous vs. having a warm beard.

ohhhh, I like it! You're sharing your conflicts in which something is both appealing and repulsive at the same time, and these conflicts are eternal. Is that correct?

So if I made one, it would be The Eternal conflict of looking at how pretty it outside vs. having to tolerate the sweltering heat.

The only downside to this format is that you have to deep dive into Diablo lore to know what the Eternal Conflict even is..
