Imagine my shock as a neurodivergent teen when I first realized that using large vocabulary and eloquent speech doesn’t make you less likely to be misinterpreted, rather it adds an entirely new layer of misinterpretation I had never even realized existed in the form of people thinking you’re being snobbish or condescending when you’re just trying to be specific
@JoshRamsay: ‘Great day in the studio with that feisty @Luke5SOS. Wrote a keeper, hung cellphones from odd ceiling outlets, and generally caused mayhem.’
Marianas Trench will write a funky little pop punk song and then the next track will be a seven minute long masterpiece of combined styles and musical themes to create a heart-wrenching narrative and you can never know which one you’re going to get

Something super weird happened last week. I went to grad 2016 of my old high school, and it was awesome. And I ran into some people who graduated last year with me. One of them being a girl I NEVER spoke to once in 3 years. When I walked passed her I waved and said hi in passing, cause that’s what you do to be polite. And she walks off then right after that comes running up to me and goes “it’s been so long! How’re you! What’re you doing!” And I’m like okay weird whatever. Then she gets an old teacher of ours to take a picture of us and captions it “The Famous Jillian Fraser” and so now I can’t get it out of my head that maybe I had a bigger reputation in high school than I thought? I mean it wouldn’t be so weird if she took pictures with the other people there but…she didn’t.
I was at the library and as i walked out some church lady with blessing everyone and giving out jesus loves you cards and i get handed one and walk off then i hear someone yelling at me and i assume its someone working with her and i turn around planning to be like ‘already got jesus thanks’ and this dude bro comes up to me and says “i was going to talk to you in the library but uh… I was wondering if you wanted to smoke a joint with me. You look like you smoke a lot.”
