Jesus Christ, this feels like it crossed a line even for him
Google says he has Asperger's, which would make this, eh, kinda normal.
When I was 16, I wouldn't be able to have a mutually consensual romantic conversation without saying something that cringed even myself out remembering it the next day.
im sorry for being this rude,
but Fuck of with that bullshit excuse.
I have Asbergers aswell, and have been arround a lot of other Autists.
even the heaviest cases i know would have known better than to post such vile shit.
This is not some akward mistake while attempting to flirt,
this is at best yelling vile and inappropriate shit at a complete stranger,
and at worst it could be considered a thinly veiled rape theat.
As somebody with Aspergers i feel downright insulted that you attempted to blame this on 'the sperg'.
And in addition to that,
hes not some 16 year old kid,
hes in his 50s for gods sake.
No you're not, and no I won't.
Well, I hadn't, except for my sister, so, especially back then, I was desperately trying to have social things other have by effort.
Going into offensive in that could look similar to what Musk posted.
At worst. I first took it as a very awkward attempt to seem magnanimous\friendly, plus Musk's weird ideas about healthy relationships.
Anyway, can he fulfill that threat were it a threat? No? Then it'd be similar to what 4chan inhabitants write. Inappropriate is not the same as evil. Though I guess he and the Internet would both benefit from cutting ties.
Well, sorry, but since I wasn't aiming for you, irrelevant.
The say older people are more like kids, ha-ha-ha
You are way too fucking serious and judgemental.
Oh, so you're just doing a bad job at being a troll. Got it.
No need to waste your time with this one, folks, he's a lost cause.
I like wasting my time on lost causes, I think I'm not the only one.
I'm more of an elf than a troll, but there are various readings of mythology
