    I hate communicating. I hate phone calls. I hate having to TRY to express feelings (that I don’t fully understand most of the time). I hate that people want to talk to me at times.

    I hate that if im expected to do something i dont wanna do it.

    It’s annoying how much more uncooperative my brain gets as I get older.

    It pains me that as much as i love animals I forget to care for them (cat litterbox, clean aquarium).

    I hate how much i hate the last half of every year because of how stressful the holidays are for me.

    My comment from the original post:

    I can’t go to clubs or listen to the sound of Velcro™, and I don’t like the texture of paper. Also, most autistic people I meet assume I am also autistic.

    The fact that I can also give a basic history of the ITV network, install Gentoo, talk for hours about PSAs, and theorise as to why none of the characters in The Simpsons ever age is just the icing on the cake.

      Swap Velcro with cotton balls and that’s me. Gives me goosebumps and spine shivers just thinking about it creak when squeezed.

        Wool for me! I think I bit the sleeve of a wool sweater as a kid once and my teeth still feel that creaking whenever I think about it

            My partner can be made to feel ill by the sound of terracotta grinding, and I can’t handle car breaks that squeak without feeling like a fishhook is exiting my body.

      I love paper and velcro but synthetic fibers are genuinely torture

        Hm I hate the flimsy kind of plastic like on top of a ketchup bottle or the aluminum piece covering things like joghurt and stuff. I flinch and have to look away whenever I have to peel it from something.

          I cant stand oil, like any kind of oil at all. It just feels so icky on my skin and thats why I dont fry things often

            When you say oil do you also mean waxes? And is there a difference between plant and animal oils? What about wax like in candles?

            The difference between oil and wax is whether they are solid or liquid at room temperature. Higher saturation fats are more likely to be solid at room temperature, and longer chain fats are the same, so a long highly saturated fat is likely to be very solid at room temperature and therefore hard and waxy.

            I find that vegetable oils excluding olive oil are pretty awful on my skin, but animal fats tend to be less of an issue. Tallow and coconut oil are my favourites for texture for animal and plant respectively, and while butter is OK ghee is strangely nasty.

              vegetable oils suck the most
