[QUOTE="DestroyYouAlot:697258"]So, I have this funny little neurological thing where my brain doesn't understand anyone else's brain. The signals and cues that tell most people what other people are thinking, feeling and saying don't trigger anything to my brain. Body language, speech patterns and inflections, verbal inferences, it's all static to me. I know that people are happy when they smile because I learned that by repetition; I know how people sound when they're pissed (and how I should sound when I am, too) by watching movies and pissing people off a lot. I've even learned to talk like you. When I speak, I speak "in character," with voices I've learned over the years (stolen bits and pieces of stand-up comics and characters from movies), because otherwise I sound like a robot with a mouth full of marbles; it's a monotone mumble. My brain doesn't, by default, put pauses, rhythms and tones into my speech on its own - it won't do the work to translate it into people-talk unless I make it. So being around people is a full-time job - I'm "on" all the time around them, because I have to pay close attention to people to tell what the fuck they're going on about (seemingly non-stop), and how I should respond. And they do keep talking. I can't automatically shut them out, selectively, unless I just "turn off" - being in a room full of simultaneous conversations is like having earmuffs on, because the ones I'm not listening to get equal time with the one I'm trying to hear. And being around you fucking monkeys tires me out, it really does. It's fucking draining. Getting home and going to my room is the ultimate goal at the end of my day, because I don't have anyone's facial expression in my field of view to think about; no one is going to tell me anything that I have to figure out subtext to, and I don't have to put on a voice and talk. It's paradise. Anyway, obviously not looking for sympathy here. Not looking for it anywhere, as a matter of fact - I like the way my brain works. There are plenty of upsides to my neurology - I'm not going into them here (this post is about bitching, after all), but I consider them more than compensation. Mostly that - when I have a mind to? - I can tune you all out like flipping a switch. Regardless, I figured one or two of you misanthropic fucks would have some idea where I'm coming from. (tl;dr: I NEAD MY HUGBOX LOL)[/QUOTE]
