Shit, I might be autism.
You are THE SPECTRUM
Hey, I get jokes. They just aren't funny most of the time. But I totally got them, yep.
Same here it's so annoying when people explain the joke because it wasn't funny. I tell people when I don't get the joke
Thats why autistic people should make jokes that non autistic people cant understand
I do this a lot (I'm AuDHD)
Also the "Austists don't get jokes"
We can, but have you ever thought that your joke may not be that funny?
Those of us with self-esteem issues: every time we make one.
I hate it when someone tells a joke that quite literally just amounts to "I think its funny to be mean to minorities or historically (or currently) oppressed groups haha look how edgy I am"
Like no that's not funny you're just making yourself look stupid
They do
Ever been hit with the "Your sarcasm is too advanced and makes the whole room thinks you're stupid" stare? This is where it comes from.
Oh so we’re lying now? For fun?
