Every person on earth could jump in the mississippi and it would flow anyways.

Standing in the Mississippi won’t dam it

That’s fair & a good point.

I don’t give a fuck and would like to be at my desk as little as possible

I always had this stance and found it weird when people resisted. Your boss’s boss’s boss’s boss is telling you to work half as much? Whether you think that the output is half as good quality or not why the fuck aren’t you JUMPING at the chance to do that.

It’s not just this, it’s practically every post on nd-based subs.

“That ADHD feeling when you walk into a room and forgot why you were there”

“Feeling awkward at the party because you have Hard Mode Brain”

“ADHD making me hate my job amiright”

It’s just all normal shit that almost every single person relates to but attributed to ADHD for no fucking reason at all. And the thing is, everyone seems to enjoy it. Like people here found a community centered on taking their extremely neurotypical behaviors and attributing it to a disorder they identify with. And for the most part it’s harmless. So, idk, good for them, I guess. I just find it deeply annoying hence -> I think these communities just aren’t for me.

I think I’m finding these communities just aren’t for me because 99% of the memes describe absolutely utterly normal wants & needs. Every single NT person on earth would want those things.

What about your comment do you think I didn’t comprehend lmao

So what you’re saying is your metaphor is not only unoriginal and lame, you also don’t understand it

More like 120 million voted to drive off a cliff and 100 million voted to not, and you live in a region of the bus where your vote doesn’t count anyways because they aggregate by row and your row already leans heavily in the “not off a cliff” camp.

If you keep it off, it’s significantly harder to get hacked.

Until your hosting service gets pwned…

Babe is so angry. Did you not read the comment thread?

Goomba fallacy

…no

Man, non-americans can be so slow lmao.

It would be easier to just say a mile.

What a stupid figure of speech.

I get excited during wildfire season.

Maybe my house will burn down and I’ll get to go on a road trip for a few months while it gets sorted out…

Yes, you’re missing the joke.

But then it’s not a “psychology hack for ADHD”. It’s just a normal productivity tip. Some with ADHD will find it useful, others won’t, and some NT people will find it useful, others won’t. Maybe on average it’s more beneficial for those with ADHD, but as I wouldn’t guess so. I don’t have any data/research supporting either direction though.

Frankly I just have a distaste for the whimsicalness applied to ADHD in online discourse. We don’t need “psychology hacks” or to describe ourselves as having “hard mode brains”. It’s a disorder. Cancer patients do not have “hard mode bodies”. And the people with more severe ADHD in my experience tend to not resonate with a lot of these terms, it’s generally only people with low level ADHD or just want to pin their dysfunction on something else who resonate with this terminology.

10000% this.

This community suffers from the “attributing normal life experiences to Our Special Quirk” you see in many communities.

People will really attribute fucking ANYTHING to adhd.

This is a common, normal ass life experience. Everyone on the face of the earth procrastinates with things like this and “choosing a smaller version of the task” is a common technique used by millions without ADHD
