And I guess now is a good time to remind you all that I am on the spectrum. I've said in the past. I don't always pick up on social cues. I'm not asking you all to excuse when you think I'm crossing a line, but at least understand where I am coming from before you jump to conclusions as to my intent when I write things.

Above, I see the use of "mad", "angry", "condescending", you're applying emotions to my words that are not there when I write them. I don't think I need to belabour the point to explain how someone with my condition has issues with social cues. I may have a large vocabulary, but I don't make any emotional connections between using one word or another.

The lot of you react to me without any consideration or understanding of my condition, even though most of you are aware of it after my last exchange of words with ADour. If you want to talk about optics, one could look at this exchange and say that you're all ganging up on and discriminating against someone with a disability. I really hope that isn't the case, because the optics moving forward aren't going to look good on the rest of you.
