  I’m left-handed, but right-elbowed

    It doesn’t. It’s just me being nonsensical.

    Oh. OK. It might have been like how I am right handed and was surprised that it's easier to stand on my left leg and do an exercise than it is to stand on my right leg to do the same type exercise. (Point toes and inscribe circles, about a foot off the ground, leg out stretched.)

  They’re called “tongue depressors “ because they leave you feeling down in the mouth.

  Just finish a work course on microagressions, sensitivity, etc. I didn't get about half of it, but I am apparently now "trained".

    I always try to be respectful and kind - I have a personal goal to be known as one of the nicest people in the company. But this training had such subtle differences in the responses that I could choose from, that I had a hard time telling why one answer was right and the other was wrong. It's just too finely nuanced for me.
    
    Also, apparently, not making eye contact is a microagression.

    That is a personal goal of mine too- I always want to be kind :)
    Sounds like that training may have taken it a step over the line though… and not accommodating to autistic people- Not making eye contact?? What??

  Why are no Christmas catalogs titled "The All-I-Want-For-Christmas Issue"? C'mon Marketing - you're missing the boat!

  If you stand before a mirror in the dark at midnight and say “X=(-b+/-(b^2-4ac)^0.5)/2a” three times, I will appear and spout random math.

  One of my most favorite parts of my day is going to sleep. My least favorite part of my day is going to bed and waiting to go to sleep.

  Pro tip: The time I spend on this page on any single day is a direct measure of how difficult it is for me to focus on actual work that day.

  I wish society was more accepting of neurodiversity. I also wish all the lights in my house took the same type of bulb.
