I guess it's a part of AS to be confused by The Ambiguous Case™. Just in general. I've had trouble interpreting stuff all my life, but sometimes it's epic when something is worded in a very confusing, ambiguous way.

If something is ambiguous, I usually only see one meaning. My mind just can't go beyond the literal interpretation.

I often go with the literal interpretation first. But most of the time I can catch myself doing that, now, and think, 'maybe that doesn't mean that'.

But sometimes it gets to the point where I don't know what anything means because it's so ambiguous. As in, it can be interpreted any number of ways.

It's the simplest way to understand things.
And it's much more less tiring!

I can understand ambiguous things but not always at first sight (if I may say so).
