I'm not good with that kind of social dance, so...
Yeah, I've had laptops thrown at me and stuff, and I'm sure it was my own fault.
Yeah.
Now, of course, anything that has two answers has a high error rate, but...
So what's more important to society as a whole from the people?
Is it cooperation or creativity?
And if you had to pick one, which is the most important?
And most neurotypical people will generally lean towards cooperation, whereas people on the spectrum tend to lean towards creativity as individual problem solvers.
So if you want to double your precision, you can use the second test, which is you ask, there's a room with 10 chairs and six people come in and sit down in those chairs.
How many chairs are left?
Now, some people are going to say four, but I'm going to say 10 because that's how many chairs are still there.
Literally true.
And I'm not being a dick.
I'm not trying to be complicated, but that is how my mind works.
And so when I see that question, it's like how you answer it.
Yeah, everything is very literal for me.
I remember as a kid, my grandfather was building a planter holder in the kitchen for my mom.
And he was using these big angle brackets that I thought were a little overkill.
And I said, do you think that'll be big enough to hold the plant?
And he says, it'll be big enough to hold a horse.
