Yeah, I think that line is getting used as a thought terminating cliche. While the statement is certainly true, not being immune is completely ignoring the idea that people can vary in how susceptible they are.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 2 weeks ago:
BG3 clearly has a lot of effort and polish put in, but overrated still resonates with me. I didn’t get out of act one because I find DnD mechanically tedious to play and the the gallery of rogues style characters more annoying than endearing.
- Comment on Socially inept, introverted employees. How do you survive the workplace? Because I’m in dire need of some serious advice. 1 month ago:
Reading through the responses, it is blatantly clear that you are autistic, so I’ll ask a question that might not have occurred to you. When someone else is speaking, do you wait for them to finish speaking before you do? Are you aware of the tone of your own voice? Both of these things matter far more for how people will react to the things you say than I think you are aware.

- Comment on Study: Remote working benefits fathers while childless men miss sense of community 2 months ago:
Remote work is a step in the right direction at least. In my case, I’m generally just too exhausted to bother going anywhere other than home and work, which definitely limits any socializing. Work culture isn’t entirely to blame of course, but it sure isn’t helping.

I’ve never told the truth before and I never will.

My family does this, but then ignore me when I say I don’t want anything. Then I end up saddled with some random garbage I feel obligated to keep.
