I promise I do try not to be.
I find most strangers annoying tbh.
…Actually on second thought I don’t. I’m apathetic towards most strangers as… Well they’re strangers, and they’re off doing their own thing. Perfectly fine interacting with most strangers too.
I do judge people lol. I walk to/from home which involves going through a four way intersection with the default fast food option (McDonalds) right on the one corner.
Whenever someone pulls in/out while I’m walk though I often (silently) remark something along the lines of “Oh of course! Gotta get that bland fast food! Having an original thought? Never heard of her. Is she hot?”
I call myself annoying in my head more than I hear it from anyone else. Always feeling like they’re thinking it is rough sometimes lol
Agreed. The self-talk is much worse than the actual comments I get from people (those suck too). People are alienated and lashing out at anything that provokes discomfort. It isn’t you (OP), it’s our social circumstances 🫂
People who call you annoying are not your friends
Everyone who has ever loved me has called me annoying.
There have been people who expressed astonishment when I told them I was neurodivergent, because they hadn’t found me annoying (interpreting their usually more polite wording). But it’s the same insult from a different angle.
I am annoying.
I don’t care about being annoying anymore, since I’m annoying no matter what I do.
Same here, public opinion has zero sway on how I behave anymore.
Even threats of being fired, or attacked have zero effect.
there may be a way to express that to people that would prompt them to be more tolerant.
