Can't relate

Haha there's a guy I hang out with at the library and I think he's great.

Wanted to invite him to a party and realized I had no way to get in touch. No name or anything.

For like a month, I've been trying to visit the library at the same exact time to see if we bump into each other.

Library stranger, I hope we meet again.

Haha bro remember that time 10 years ago when we did that thing? Man that was nice.

Possibly linux

You are literally burning money. Pay attention as instructors don't work for free

winter break starts tomorrow, I finished pretty much all my work last week.
The most work I've done in the last 3 days is roll a die and draw a snowman depending on those numbers then doing math to figure out the chances of the ordering of them in AP Computer Science Principles lol

I appreciate the message though. I try to understand all the information I can, even if I'm horrible at Spanish 2 and English

He could be in 4th grade...

Yep.

You pay for the degree, not the classes.

Meet my friends R2D2 and C3P0

I spent more than 4 years working in a place were I just knew the names of the 10 people immediately around me. People kept talking about person X or Y from another floor or room and I had absolutely no fucking idea who they were talking about.

I have a friend who has a lot of friends. Sometimes we hangout together, but rarely. I cannot for the life of me remember their names and I swear 3 of them look the fucking same to me. It's always a struggle to keep pretending for hours until I finally hear someone call one of them by name. I remember that for a few hours. If we hangout again next day it resets out of my head again.

2 things that make it a little bit easier to remember other people's names is repeating the name of the person after he/she just said it and trying to associate with another person you know that has the same name. It's not perfect but it's better than forgetting every single time.

The obvious way out of this situation: open your own kebab place and start calling him bossman or chief.

That’s when you figure out a reason to hand them a clipboard and say, “Imma need you to sign in.”

Jfc, if you knew how long it has taken me to know the names of some of my friends, and not just work friends or gym friends, it would be absurd.

Hell, even after months of hanging with someone, you might not know their last name; it's all "hey, I'm zipper". Why zipper? "I dunno, you know how it is". Yeah, I feel that. Anyway, went a beer, zip?

My chronic pain/disability support group shares space with an autism support group. Not a single one of the autism group knows my actual name afaik, but we'll hang out down the road at a diner some nights as a mixed group when we're meeting at the same time. It's all "hey, beard!" And "sasquatch, wanna see my cat?" And sometimes just "man". I've known some of them for years and we don't know each other's actual names. A couple of them, I've been to their house, and vice versa, and we don't know each others last name at all.

One guy in specific came over, heard my wife call out my name and was confused as hell because my name sounds like a regular word and thought it was a different nickname. Asked for the story behind it, and I had to show him my driver's license because he thought I was fucking with him. We'd had dinner together at the diner dozens of times.

No need for real names when you're bros

You do know that telling someone with ADHD to just pay attention is like telling someone on a cane to jog, right?

Dick move in other words

Yeah. "My boy from the bar, the one with the anime girl car..." or whatever is how my stories to my wife would go. If told to a general audience the pii would be removed.

This could be a great Seinfeld or Curb episode

why say their name when you could instead say “guy” or “man”, or, occasionally, “buddy”?
