Just add "but I like that" at the end with a wink and you're running baby

    I'm autistic and this would really simplify things tbh

    Right? I don't usually behave like this in professional or formal environments, but in every other situation, I try to give myself permission to be me. Fuck it. Be weird.

    I tried this after watching my daughter go up to someone and just straight up ask if they want to be friends before names or anything.

    All I can say is it works.

    The inigo montoya style:

    Step 1: Give a polite greeting.

    Step 2: State your name.

    Step 3: Establish a personal connection.

    Step 4: Manage expectations of the relationship.

    That's basically a version of how I open Teams meetings with Developers.

    "I'm Chilie. I'm a Planner. Are you on fucking crack proposing to build this environmental nightmare in the middle of a floodway?"

    I was wondering how a floodway affected software developers but I eventually figured it out.

    Some of us do though. The world would be a better place if we all did!

    But I don't need to have everyone tell me I'm bald. I know this. Tell me something nice.

    The last young lady who told me an interesting fact about dinosaurs was on my mind for a month.

    Hi Katie. I don’t have any friends. I like vodka and people who don’t comment on my thinning hair. You’re being a real bitch right now.

    How else are you supposed to do that if at all? /genq

    Know what? Next time I ask a woman out...

    "Hi I'm [Redacted], I'm [Redacted]yo. I like photography and nature walks and my cats. You're really pretty and seem cool, you wanna eat lunch together?"

    (Fuck actually now that I type that out, it's actually just a less eloquent phrasing of my current approach. Well. Consarn it.)

    Am a woman, would be down for someone asking me out like that. I now know something about you, I know your thoughts about me and don't have to guess, and you're putting forward a suggestion of what to do.

    this made me laugh, this is how some of my clients have introduced them self. Sometimes it can be all their hobbies and what not for 5-10 mins and then they add "oh and my title is x and this is my expectations" lol

    Don't threaten me with a good time.

    This would be a relief. Yes, I am autistic, why do you ask?

    Picture it: "hi I'm Hedgehog what's your favorite dinosaur? My favorite dinosaur is parasaurolophus"

    Unfortunately now I'm an adult and asking people about their favorite dinosaurs marks me as weird, which in the workplace is not good.
