When I was in third grade I had an argument with my teacher who told me that insects were not animals. I was really into nature documentaries and books at the time and I knew that insects were in the animal kingdom. I remember going home and being really mad about it. That really soured me on school for the rest of my life. I'm still bitter about it!

Maybe. I've wondered if I'm on the spectrum. Either way that teacher was definitely wrong.

I'm mostly joking, but not getting over it so many years later is a symptom of autism, fyi

I was mainly joking, I'm definitely over it.

my mom started to dye her hair when I was a small child, and not joking - I'm still not over it ... I really do hold onto things that long, and I'm beginning to wonder if I might be on the spectrum 😅
