Anyone else feel like they're about to collapse from stress in the middle of the street virtually everytime they leave the damn house thanks to the unbelievably irritating and completely maddeningly illogical NTs they're surrounded by? Not just typical us Vs them AT and NT stuff, but extremes that go beyond all reasonable explanation. :(

Do you live in a town where quite literally, without any exaggeration whatsoever, 99.9% of everyone you meet is a simplistic redneck animal, whose stupidity knows absolutely no bounds, yet you're the one classed as being at fault due to having AS?

I'm guessing fellow Brits will probably appreciate some of what I'm saying as this town is pretty much the biggest joke in the UK, it's like living in an episode of the Twilight Zone. :( :? :roll:

No, I'm not having a meltdown, closer to a shutdown. :?

Need to lie down.

I guess I shut myself off from people around me enough that they don't bother me.

That and I try to laugh whenever I can... keeps me sane.

Lol andy its like sticks of different shapes and sizes, you stick them in a bag shake and it comes out, then 1 min later you pick them back up and shake and drop, you do this every min then you map how the world works CHAOS...


CHAOS

# a state of (((extreme))) confusion and disorder...
# (physics) a dynamical system that is (((extremely))) sensitive to its initial conditions..

Indeed. That's pretty much all there is to this place. Are you aware this place is actually due to be the European Capital of "Culture" in 2008?

That is fracking insane! Culture? Hysterical :lol: More like European Capital of Chavs.

Hmmm, I know what you're saying, but this transcends chaos, it's madness....it's like they're all writing down lists of completely insane and irrational things for every decision (large or small) that they take in life, numbering them, then using a random number generator to determine which one to go with. :?

andy1976uk, my husband and I feel the way you're feeling pretty much whenever we shop at Walmart.

Thus, the reason why we DON'T often shop at Walmart.

Nope, the place would be a ghost town. What's ridiculous is that not only will liverpool still be trying to live off their legacy 30 years from now but all the Beatles themselves decided to leave. :roll:

Would be OK if I never had to go outside, but sometimes there's no choice.

Ahh... but no random number generator is actually random... just find out what seed they're using and you can predict the behavior better. :)

This is very true, although knowing these people they're not even using base-10 for the seed.

Well, I must stick up for Liverpool because it's got some great art galleries. Sorry you don't like living there though Andy. There are some very weird peeps around here too. Darned NT's, get everywhere don't they? :lol:

This is true, there are some very nice buildings and interesting examples of architecture, but unfortunately, things like art galleries are wasted on the vast majority of the local population. I'm trying to find the US equivalent of the word Chav, but the closest I can come up with is redneck, any ideas? Could Eminem be considered a bit Chavish? :?

What part of Wales are you from Starr?
