    You can find all sorts of gore on the Interwebs. This one… This one terrifies me.

    I think the little dangling threads really put this over the top for me.

    I feel delightfully squirmy, but not in the fun way.

      I think “delightfully” is a direct opposite to “not in the fun way”

    There’s no way this is an autistic only trait right? You’re telling me people just go around dealing with those things?

      There’s a difference between “that’s a bit annoying” and “I literally can’t think of anything else and I must tear off the tag even if I destroy the shirt and I mean RIGHT now or I’m getting naked”

      If you take a single trait, it’s almost never autistic or whatever only. But it can be a common one among autistic people.

      But there are people who don’t care about tags and let them in their clothes.

      It’s kinda concerning how people often are taking normal reactions/behaviors and labeling them as autistic or ADHD.

        I’m not sure if it applies to autism to the same degree, but that’s actually one of the main problems with ADHD:

        Most of our symptoms are things that neurotypicals struggle with too, but taken to 11 because of congenital differences in neurochemistry including but in no way limited to chronic dopamine deficiency.

        There is an issue in autistic individuals with textures. And it’s an issue you can’t really understand if you don’t suffer it. Yeah, I dress by texture rather than fashion. And those tags are hellish to me and many other autistic people in ways that only them understand.

        It’s kinda concerning and pretty annoying when some people start with the “this is a normal reaction, not an autistic thing”.

          Infuriating since annoyances are equated with real suffering. I always try to explain that yes, there are things which NT can experience but they have a scale from 0 to 100 and ND scale can be wildly off like > 4000% which can cause a whole range of psychological as well as physical issues.

        You try having ADHD and going 24 hours without food. All you can think about is eating. It’s very distracting. It’s an ADHD thing 🤷‍♀️

          That is literally so easy, I regularly do it by accident because I hyperfocus on some nonsense.

            Took me fourteen hours to fix a problem yesterday. I bet it would have taken 4 if I had eaten something during the troubleshooting

              Yes but is that worth the utter and complete agony of stopping what you’re doing and then starting again 10 minutes later? /s

          ironically I often forget to eat and get trapped in binge/fast cycles unless I painstakingly log every single thing I eat.

      I read your comment, thought “Am I dealing with one?” and had to reach into my shirt to check if it had one or not. It turns out it does! So… I guess so. I’m irregular in other ways, though, so I might not be a good point of comparison.

        I confirm i have one, well two, but i can’t tell exactly. The annoying ones are usually long. Also you better not start thinking about these little things because it’s like virus.

        No really don’t even start to think about it.

      Depends if you can stand to wear a wool turtleneck (over another shirt that keeps the wool only touching your neck).

      I can’t stand any turtleneck, personally, for exactly the same reason I can’t do tags. It’s there touching me, and it feels wrong but won’t go away, and the wrongness bothers me. Even super fluffy soft fabrics are wrong on my neck.

    If you somehow manage to put that shit on me, you better kill me afterwards. Because if I take it off, you’re going to deal with an overloaded velocirap human that’s going to show you the meaning of overcharged anger.
