This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's cool if other people have the same hobby/ interest, but just like, somewhere else please. I'm far too particular/ special about the things I like and how I do them that if anyone tries to participate but can't match or fit with my weirdness, then it just becomes a stressful, frustrating, anxiety inducing, not-fun time.

Clarity Edit Cause Me Dumb-Dumb and Words Hard: I'm saying everyone gets to have their own little bubbles. I've found that I usually need to stick to my own bubble, but the rest of yall can and absolutely should choose what to do with your own bubble, especially sharing it if that works for ya. I don't actually want anyone to physically be somewhere else. Well, I mean, I do, but not in a mean way and I can do the moving.

you need to be the one enjoying the hobby somewhere else, if this is the case

I mean, yeah, this is exactly what I'm trying to say, lol.

We can all have our own little comfortable spaces to enjoy our things and should be able to choose how we share a space. I just generally like people to stay out of my spaces because otherwise it tends to become an uncomfortable place unless I'm with specific people. I would never ask anyone else to change their behavior or edit their spaces just to accommodate me being weird. That's not fair to them, and I know that I'm the probably-autistic idiot in the room.

I guess your comment's POV, being framed coming from someone who didn't like people trying to participate with them in their hobbies, lead me to perceive the position being from someone out in the social spaces of their hobbies, where something like that can happen, rather than something like at home, alone, doing their thing.

I guess my point is that the way the comment was worded seems to create the opposite setting of what you were trying say?

Hmm, I suppose what I said could be rather easily misinterpreted that way.
