  • I have no fucking clue how to do small talk. I tend to get too serious too fast and feel very incompetent and overwhelmed with this kind of almost meaningless noise. So it either ends in awkward silence or in me saying something too heavy for that kind of conversation, which tends to make things awkward as well.

    Example, option A:
    “It’s so nice and warm today.”
    “Yeah, but did you know that death rates of sensitive population groups like elderly have increased due to more and intense heatwaves caused by global warming?”

    Option B:
    “It’s so nice and warm today.”
    “Yeah.”
    [silence]

    Maybe I should get checked for autism, lol.
