    If a waiter thinks their guest can digest such a blurt of information, they don’t know how humans work. This isn’t ADHD, this is being in a new environment with lots of stuff already there to process. And then you want me to listen to your TED talk about your diner? Just gimme the fucking menu, I can read!

      Like so many other ADHD symptoms, it’s one of those things that’s a pain for some neurotypicals but much worse for people with ADHD.

      “We all pee too, but if we’re doing it 60 times a day, that’s a problem”

      The specials aren’t on the menu. I actually get something out of the little talk.

        The person who downvoted you for listening to someone else talk is a hilarious reminder of what kinds of mindsets are out there
