        Reminds me of arguing with my brother on social media. He's a fucking idiot but when you say the right things, it triggers something in him and he starts using "ergo" instead of therefore randomly out of the blue.

        Okay but also sometimes I get afraid of being misunderstood and I think a lot of ND people have that kind of experience and a sort of self-protection thing is then being very specific in your language

          I get like this too, but i think that's different than pulling out $10 words to try and win an argument - autistic clarification is its own thing to me - I pretty readily switch to a more formal language if i feel misunderstood so i get it

          but also

          Think for a moment on the purpose of that utterance.

          is somebody trying to win

            Oh yeah for sure, this dude is not doing the ND trauma response, this dude studied the blade.
            I guess I felt the need to respond to the tweet, which also covered the overly verboseness.

            This, also I'm just too verbose lea-smug but more than that I've always liked or had a tendency to fight fire with fire.

            Also maybe as a kid I wanted to be a lawyer, but that was more due to life reasons
