So I had to get some work done in my university's language lab today. The guy who works the night shift is a massive autist, one of the most awkward people I've ever encountered irl. Today he had a female friend in there with him (made a point of telling me she was his friend, too) and I had the JOY of overhearing their conversation. My god, it was as though Chris has a brother.
I now know exactly how all of Chris's interactions with his gal-pals went. This poor girl was clearly humoring the guy, in the kind of voice one uses for speds or children.
Highlights included:
He lives with his mom, their cats, and their dogs. They have multiple cats. One dog just died. "She was a lazy bitch". Another dog who died was absolutely riddled with worms right before he died.
He points out how he is NOT making a "pussy" joke when he mentions that his mom likes cats. Awkward pause for 15 seconds.
He asked the girl what kind of dog she would be if she was a dog. He answers for himself, a wolf or a husky. She politely says that huskies are cute. He says "well hmm it's funny that you would make that association there, heheh." He tells her she would be a collie like Lassie (the kind Chris would have fucked for Panda). She does not like collies. He amends it to sheltie.
Out of nowhere he makes a Game of Thrones reference. She doesn't watch the show and is completely confused. I imagine our favorite autist likely did this same thing but with Sonic/Pokemon/Sonichu.
Here I thought I had built up a good immunity to autist awkwardness from keeping up with Chris's antics. I was wrong.
