You fine people for eating in their own bedroom? The fuck is wrong with you?

This isn't because they're autistic. It's because you're a giant gaping asshole and they truly don't understand your insane rules.

I was about to ask the same question just worded much less strongly. Why do you fine them for eating in their room? If they are renting a room from you they should be able to do whatever they want in there as long as they are not destroying stuff or disturbing you/ neighbours

No, it has nothing to do with autism. Any reasonable person would ask about the rules. Autistics will try to remember and follow them, assuming it’s just another thing that they don’t understand. Neurotypicals have probably networked and blackballed you, which is why your tenants (they’re not roommates) are autistic. NTs are also likely more aware of their rights as tenants, and would probably fight back. You’re getting off easy.

You’re also a massive tool, in case that isn’t clear.

Your roommates are not concern trolling. Autistic people generally have a hard time trying to accept rules that don’t make sense to them, and will question why they exist.

To be completely honest with you, the rules you mentioned don’t make any sense to me, either. Are you sure these people are your roommates and not your tenants?

If I see a plate in their room, they’re getting fined for eating in there.

I'm not sure that they're the ones with the problem.

OP is either a tyrant or a troll. Russian random string instance...

If I was your tenant, I would probably shoot at you until you got the fuck out of Ukraine.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

You don’t let people eat in their own rooms that they rent?

Maybe have fewer asshole-ish rules that even “normal” people would find confusing.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 2 years ago

Probably not. Your rules are just stupid if the one you mentioned here is any indication.
