It wasn’t the show. It was that anon was kind to him and wanted to hang out with him, be chill and connect with him with sincere good intention, and that made such a profound impact that he didn’t want to let it go and wanted to go deeper into whatever was going on in that world.

Everyone just wants love.

I'm just wondering, where did you get this from? Is there like a study or something I could look at?

[–] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 20 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I just have known many people, and I'm something of an autist myself at times.

As a 24/7 autist (and specialist)- can confirm.

Anon is mistaken about the "stutter" though; it sounds more like palilalia. Both of which have a low prevalence rate (<10%) so it's weird that anon calls it "classic."

Granted, the whole story is probably fake anyway

I would call bullshit, but not after watching someone I knew closely turn himself into a carbon copy of the character Nathan Ford from Leverage, and another do it with the guy from Entourage, I honestry don't doubt it at all.

Man, Nathan is the most boring character on Leverage. That guy probably sucks.

The venties scene in new leverage is actually lethal with how hard i laughed. Funniest thing iver ever seen. I cant remember who the new guy is but hes great

The new series is great, I used to not like Sophie in the original series but now I love her. They all have excellent chemistry and the new guy (Harry) and Hardison's little sister are additions that fit perfectly into that despite my initial doubts about it.

No, just boring. It's like turning yourself into ryan gosling's character from drive

Yeah seriously; I use my social media strictly as a mobile experience. (The desktop is for work, big purchases, and games.) This post was annoying as hell.

Could be worse, hopeful it will also prompt him to speak with a psychiatrist.

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 13 points 7 months ago

I hope this is real.

What a great story. I especially liked that the cousin had joined a badminton club and was going out to enjoy opera.

[–] Early_To_Risa@sh.itjust.works 9 points 7 months ago

This might actually work for him

[–] anothercatgirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 months ago

Impossible to read with that cropping.
