Solutions pollutions. If we have too many solutions, what are we going to do with no reason to jump up and down, flail wildly, moan and groan, and be argumentative?
Oh my gosh this is so true. Many of my clients have Autism and they just blurt out if something annoys them. Often it is about me and how I’m walking or talking and one guy found me “too hairy”. I try the “is this better” routine and give them grace. I figure this is the most self-advocacy they get in a life with so much control.

:-) Maybe we could take up a constructive hobby? Thanks, Roger!

Thank you, Joey. A little gentleness can be a healer.
