Ahhh, I don't think that part is a lie at all. I think that part is absolutely true, just his framing is a lie. I fully believe that Dave had terrible grooming habits, with grime under his fingernails and knots in his hair -- he wasn't particularly trying to grow out his nails and hair per se, he was just a slovenly slob with no sense of personal hygiene or grooming and couldn't be arsed to clean or cut them. But people around him of course noticed the gross grime caked under his fingernails and the knots matting his hair and tactfully tried to call his attention to these problems, suggesting that perhaps some trimming was in order. In his brain, adults gently trying to correct this autistic male behavior and nudge him toward being a functioning human is now "I had fabulous, glamorous, affirming hair & nails! People even noticed them! But they just wanted to keep my FLAWLESS FEMINITY down because I'M A TRUE AND HONEST WOMAN!""In 5th grade, I started growing out my nails and hair."
Stopped reading right there. The whole story is a lie and we all know it.
It is fascinating to look for the glimmers of truth in the mythology he creates for himself.
