I am autistic and my entire life is being oblivious to situations that others grasp immediately

My mistake, I thought you were of a different generation where there weren’t 40 candidates for every entry-level position. I see now from your comment bonanza that you’re actually just a judgmental douche!

Can we not do the whole ‘millenials are lazy and just sit around waiting for the perfect job’ thing? The reality is that (at least in my part of the world) at the moment even entry level jobs are difficult to get. My last job was basic entry-level admin, which in simpler times would have been filled by someone with a…

DO NOT CONTACT HR.

It is kind of a lot about marriage though? I mean the second book is literally called “Good Wives” and that’s usually rolled together with the first in any adaptation

This is a joke article, it was written for the BMJ’s December which is traditionally full of “amusing” articles. It is based on some real research but the “findings” are deliberately tongue-in-cheek. e.g. he wrote:

This is not a real article, it was written as a joke (a BMJ December tradition). It is based on some real research but the “findings” are deliberately tongue-in-cheek. FFS he wrote:

Guys, this is a joke. The BMJ publishes jokey articles in December as their Christmas edition. The same edition included an article claiming that Peppa Pig is destroying the NHS by creating unsustainable expectations of service.

I’m taking some comfort from the fact that when you break it down, the 63% of white women voting for him were actually the 63% of white *evangelical* women. I mean I’m not comforted by the primacy in the US of what’s essentially a Christian Taliban, but at least it isn’t every white woman, but ones whose lunacy is…

You don’t just kick your cats out when they are inconvenient, I understand why she’s in a bind. With a baby things are different, but in most cases there are things you can do - they’re not evil, they are distressed. We got in a cat behaviourist to help my cat and it really helped. If you can’t afford that the books…

Count yourself lucky, I regularly get “Tsibola”, to rhyme with “Ebola”

nice!

In Israel the @ symbol is pronounced “strudel”, because we think it kind of looks like an apple strudel. So now when I see Americans writing “don’t @ me”, I read it as “don’t strudel me” and it’s very confusing.

ish. I took her pottery painting once and she really enjoyed it, and we made a cushion cover together and she enjoyed that, but I did the tricky bits because the one thing I would say is that she doesn’t have a lot of patience (maybe that is normal for 12 year olds though?). She likes baking, too. Mostly though I…

nice :)

A girl, she’s sometimes quite young for her age though I think (actually what the fuck do I know, I was such a weird kid). Very imaginative, makes up fabulous backstories for everything (e.g. she has a stripy hat she particularly likes and will tell you what each colour stripe represents, at great length). Previous…

Any idea what age these things are aimed at? I have a 12 year old to buy for and I have no fucking clue

Are you... Kevin Spacey?

AMERICANS ARE SO FUCKING WEIRD ABOUT FLAGS. CALM DOWN, Y’ALL IT’S JUST A FLAG.

well fucking don’t
