I went shopping in the local high street this morning. Thought I'd check out the newsagents that's just opened. On their magazine rack, there were nine different gun magazines. It made me wonder whether this was sleepy North-West England or Dodge City in 1870.

Also noticed that Aldi have introduced yet another flavour of crisps. This time it's 'Gin & Tonic'. LOL.

I'm too [a word which isn't lazy but not hesitant] to apply to jobs*, I realize.

*In the sense/as far as writing and/or adjusting resumes or cover letters go..postings, locally fortunately I have come across on a certain website.

I don't know what to think of the first part. It may behoove them to have as much of everything as possible to start out, see what sells, and remainder the rest in order to test the local market. Did they have 12 magazines about cats and 40 about fashion?

These G&T crisps, are they made from potatoes, corn, wheat, or what?

I looked back at this comment several times, and it blows my mind how much I relate. I like the people I live with, though, and want to communicate with them more than we already do. I recall from your other comments that you feel pretty differently from the way I feel in many important ways, so I keep thinking about this aspect. We have very different situations, and it surprises me that we share this response to impending social interaction.

I enjoy how much I learn about the different ways to have autism from reading stuff all over this forum, in every kind of discussion.

Start the day the Balthazar Bratt way with new Little Bratts cereal!

These bubblegum flavoured balls contain 300% of your daily sugar requirement, and are not part of a nutritious breakfast!

Little Bratts cereal- helping YOU be as baaaaaad as you can be!

Don't think it makes any difference whether I'm here or not.
It's neither here nor there.

^Yes it does. We like you very much, and I, for one, am always glad when you're here.

I rarely give any thought to saving people from idiots. I just enjoy finding out if people come by their idiocy inevitably or deliberately, and berating them if it is the latter.

I give up. This whole social interaction thing is utterly mystifying. I'm done with it. I'll settle for cats, humans are just too much hassle. I'll adopt a couple of cats and become a crazy cat hermit. At least I understand cats.
