New here

[Darray]

So yeah. New here. Lol. Figured I should try to be social-ish and where better to do it than with those most likely to be able to follow my own type of thought train. I'm honestly not really good at this whole introduction thing. I can contribute to discussions or even start one but introductions are always so awkward. Like am I supposed to tell you my favorite color? It's blue by the way

I'm watching the slow increase of views... so now begins my panicked rambling.
I am an Intp. Luckily I always got into those special programs in school so not too horribly scarred by that institution. I had a problem with a teacher once, he caught me doodling and thought he'd catch me off guard and make me feel embarrassed. I promptly answered the question and returned to my doodling and he gave me a grade only based off of the tests. It was awesome not having to do homework. Strangely college sucked, thought it would finally be mentally stimulating but it was all review from sixth grade. I now have a job that allows me free time to think of stories while occasionally throwing a fun mechanical problem for me to solve. I like to write, even though I suck at it, I like to draw and paint, I sew medieval clothes and lolita fashion, watch anime current tv show I'm watching is Gotham on Netflix. I train in medieval combat and rapier. Ummm.... I don't eat fish. It smells good and looks delicious but it's the texture. I like tea, especially boba tea.

Interesting. I prefer red, I think. I remember in second grade I decided that I hate green because it was my arch-nemesis' favorite color. Also holy shit I don't remember his name. Back then I thought I was going to go to the grave cursing that kid.

Fuck, man.

What special programs in school? Like GATE or AP or something? (Those were the programs for where I lived. Dunno if they extend to other places. Also they might have scarred me more. Granted, I definitely would've been bored by less accelerated programs, but overall I think they gave me a worse impression of the slaughterhouse factory cookie cutter bullshit that high school tries to train people for).
I agree, college is shit, but more because of the people (both the culture of the town as well as the way professors run their classes) than the actual subject matter.
What's your job, if you don't mind my asking? Sounds cool.
Your hobbies seem cool.
I agree, fish has an odd texture, at least in comparison to other meats. My housemate last year said that autistic people have issues with textures and apparently that manifests more often with food textures. Maybe you and I are autistic. Maybe everyone is autistic. Everyone's probably autistic.

Welcome!

favorite color used to be red but i question whether i ever liked it that much or not. kind of drawn toward blue and other neutral colors. mostly dont like bright colors but might sometimes wear. not so much a concern nowadays as the preference tends to just take care of itself anyway.

Blue is my color too. It sounds generic in some ways, but is soothing and contemplative -- like the depths of space or the ocean before things run black.

...I now have a job that allows me free time to think of stories while occasionally throwing a fun mechanical problem for me to solve.

That sounds like pretty much my entire career history. I make a decent living but am not usually passionate about the job -- I usually manage to get my work done quickly and deal fine with the crunch periods, but then all the downtime I'm just off doing whatever, dealing meanwhile with any fires that pop up. I guess I could get further in my career if I wanted to invest, but I'm happy with things the way they are.

I kind of think of Nathaniel Hawthorne with his job in the counting house and laugh.

Does anyone here like yellow?. I love that color! :3

Welcome Darray! ^^

I like exotic looking colours between the red-blue colour scheme.

Yeah gate programs and AP classes. Learned about plants and did bell music and art history had a really cool English teacher. I suck at writing but somehow he managed to get through my horrible sentence structure. The only class I ever did all of my homework in. I work in a factory, at first just packing boxes. Now I'm more managerial and get to figure out why a machine is making bad product. Funny about the autism thing because I have aspbergers which is a form of autism.

I use to like red, and yellow lately it's blue, slowly migrating to green.
