Like a decoy to a duck, the problems only start when the car attempts to mate with it

AND a superiority complex

A laser heating one side of anything enough to ablate material in space will alter it's trajectory, it's entirely possible that objects in low earth orbit would be forced to return to earth. That's been proposed as a possible way to deal with all the random crap in space.

I have a neuromild friend who, when I am on a rant because the world works the wrong way, or explaining something in detail that the milds probably don't care about, very politely holds up a little sign for me.

It's like, "Hey friend, this is a 'tism."

They've never stopped me, never cut me off, never sighed in exasperation that the autistic guy is at it again. Just a little note that whatever I'm on about is neurospicier than the milds generally like.

I always cheated at that one and pretended someone had asked me a question next to me. Or that I had misheard them.

"Oh yeah you can have my spoon sorry about that it's crazy here anyway..."

Or "I'm sorry WHAT about a dragonfly?"

My favorite was finding new ways to accuse chiropractors of fraud.

"Oh yeah it looks like you had the wrong diagnosis code in there, see this is for kidney failure. Haha I know you're just a chiropractor and you're not trying to treat the kidneys DOCTOR." Really lay it on thick with the doctor, because if the chiropractor is calling himself he's almost guaranteed to be one of the pricks that insists he's a real doctor and not a street magician with a degree.

I'm willing to bet that being neurospicy is actually the default, and the neuromilds, the mayonnaise brains, they're actually the broken ones. They're just so fucking forceful with their bullshit they convinced the world to do things their way.

What, you're telling me you fell OFF the spectrum? Are you ok? Do you need help communicating honestly? Just say exactly what you mean it's ok, I know you judge others for no reason but we don't do that. You can just be honest. Or you can lie and blame me for not understanding you that's fine too you fucking prick.

8-4 to your payroll people is 8 hours less a lunch break. Because they expect you took it and went home early.

Again it's not something that can't be fixed, and I'm sure once in a while it would be fine. But a bunch of people doing it all the time probably causes enough extra work to need to hire someone just to take care of it.

The most unreasonably rigid people you've ever met will work in accounting and payroll.

This is less common than you think, and gets pretty hazy pretty fast where it is true.

The real reason is payroll and accounting.

If you leave an hour early to take your lunch, it looks like you only worked 7 hours.

Could this be fixed? Probably. But accountants are notoriously salty about anything that threatens to crack the mold.

No. They are not.

Kitchen appliances like blenders and mixers are going to draw more power than USB-C is capable of delivering even at their lowest settings.
