I never would have got there.
I thought it was a blow job joke and that they wouldn't have been born.
I took it as a sex joke too, but actually meaning if the mother hadn't skipped out on the previous sex the person wouldn't have been conceived because there was already someone else.
That's probably because your mom didn't suck up that last headache.
you should have been a blowjob?
I still don't get it.
If her mom hadn't taken Tylenol, she wouldn't be bothered by the sound of tags rubbing in her shirt
Sound is probably incorrect. Volume in this case relates to the "volume" of the feeling of the tags. Describing how the feeling of tags is overwhelming compared to its actual impact.
Fair enough
Nah that's wrong
Shirt tags are loud as shit and it sounds painful at the base of my skull.
Sound is the correct sense.
Her mom took Tylenol now she has autism
Cause she took tylenol
thank you
Yeah, I was never going to get there
Now will my autistic teenager...
I am unaware of the effects of Tylenol.
What does it do about shirt tags? How does someone else "sucking up" (what does that mean?) a headache have to do with another's shirt tags and sensory issues?
This is a joke about Tylenol during pregnancy causing autism, a ridiculous claim made by Trump's Secretary of Health and Human Services.
oic, so the "last headache" meant the headache during pregnancy.
I was thinking of something more recent.
I feel the need to ask about the choice of "loud" as the adjective here. Are the tags actually making audible noise, or is this just a non-standard usage of it an a synonym for "overwhelming"?
I wouldn't say it's all that "nonstandard." The word "loud" is often used to mean distracting or attention-grabbing in a visual context, so extending it to other senses doesn't seem like that far of a leap.
It's probably not relevant, but on the subject of fabrics: have you guys ever noticed how velvet and its ilk make it literally impossible to breathe?
Wow, this is something I've noticed for my whole life but never talked about or anything, just assumed it was some odd quirk of mine. But yes, I have a specific recollection of touching some kind of paper that had like a velour side to it, and just catching my breath for some reason, and it's happened a handful of times in the last 30+ years since then.
I noticed it when I was a kid in Walmart. Just part of being super normal, I've learned. Velvet makes you unable to breathe. What of it!?
Stop giving this oxygen

Fuck tags. I absolutely despise them. I rip those pitches off everything. Blanket? Rip that hoe off. Shirt? Fuck you i rather have a hole in my shirt than a tag. Pillow? Hell no. Fuck tags man
Tags are the worst. I’m so happy for the trend of silk screening them onto the fabric directly.
It's the polyester, imo. A lot of natural fibers get fuzzier as they wear, but the plastic fiber tags will polish to a sharp edge.
Wait, being irritated by tags in shirt is an autism thing? I just thought it was a pretty common kid thing...
I don't think anyone likes them, but maybe autistic people are more likely to absolutely detest them. I know my partner certainly does; she cuts them out of every shirt she wears... Including some of mine, unfortunately.
I do not think that if you are irritated by tags it necessarily means that you are autistic. I get irritated by tags and I have been tested for autism and I am not autistic. I am not completely neurotypical in other ways though.
Big doubt this person is on the severe end of the autism spectrum disorder and they are a just a social media user seeking engagement.
No one likes obnoxious tags.
I don't like the tags (end of discussion). = No symptoms here
I don't like the tags and I LITERALLY cannot wear anything man made unless the tags are cut = Symptom right here.

Their mom probably also is weirdly particular about certain textures “for no reason at all” 👀
I can't stand tags.
I love certain textures. Anything soft. Some book covers.
I need to wear my socks inside out because the seams drive me insane.
I hate bright lights.
Uh oh
Congratulations you have Sense Perception if you haven't received a formal diagnosis you're probably just normal.
I've got add.
I'm not self diagnosing myself with anything though btw. Just having a laugh.
Actually, I AM diagnosing myself. With krooklochurm disorder. It causes excessive gas and the ability to communicate effortlessly with any real unicorns.
