An example would be folding laundry into a neat pile or remembering people's names. There are so many examples, I want to see what yours is.
Note: I want to be clear I do not tolerate any form of harassment, hate speech, or misinformation about minority groups, including attempts to disguise bigotry as mere 'opinions', racially motivated comments, etc. By commenting on someone's submission and posting your own submission, you are implicitly agreeing to uphold a calm, collective, and respectful attitude. If you mess up, it will not be welcomed here. Thank you. I hope you enjoy your day.

Speaking to other people, whether it be in person or in an online meeting. I like to text people instead, because it gives me more time to process what I’m going to say, if that makes any sense. Sometimes I even script conversation starters and what I might say next.

Picking up the phone and call someone (other than family). I prefer messages, Mail etc. Just no phone call.

Math was never my specialty. It's always been a bit challenging for me.

Basically any task that doesn't have a deadline. If you don't give me a hard timeframe, I'm probably not going to do it. All tasks are left until the last minute and done in a state of total panic. Executive dysfunction is real, y'all!

Getting up in the morning before 10; I just want to stay in bed, especially in colder weather. Corollary: going to bed at night. I want to watch another episode, or read another chapter. Night owl here, just in case you haven't guessed. Thank goodness I am now retired, so I can organise (nearly) everything around MY timeframe. After 60+ years of getting up early for school, uni, work etc I still feel tired!

Not zoning out in the middle of a task, be it writing an essay, drawing, cooking, eating or whatever, i end up staring into the distance while daydreaming. Madd does that to you i guess

Cutting a straight perpendicular vertical line. It doesn't matter what the substance - cheese, wood, bread, corned beef - it never goes at 90 degrees in any direction.

Staying calm and polite around people. I'm ASD (high functioning), but a lot of the time I feel on the edge of a meltdown because (a) someone like my boss is giving me too many simultaneous tasks, (b) he won't stop asking me how far I am, (c) at least he knows about it and tries to control his urge to badger me, but often he fails to do so (d) my partner is super disparaging about ASD people like my kid and I have to nuke her periodically which makes me feel s**t (she doesn't take it seriously and thinks I'm self-diagnosed which I'm NOT!!! I got a f*****g letter from a psychiatrist ffs) (e) my ex bothering me about money when she doesn't understand how hard it is to keep a job with ASD because people get pissed off with you being weird all the time and melting down (f) being anxious because I do not know if I am going to meltdown today and embarrass myself by being a "Crybaby" or whatever heteronormative gender role they expect from me because I appear/display as a regular heteronormative man. Ex...f*****g...sausting.

Driving. I can operate a car alright, both standard and automatic, but I have issues driving in traffic, despite several driving courses and practice. It was never a problem where I live, as it a city where driving is not practical most of the time, but I am about to move to the countryside, and frankly I am a bit terrified.

Okay, prepare for a list that makes me seem incredibly mentally handicapped.
1: DIVISION. What the heck is a number going into a number and why aren't decimals a thing!?!?!?!?
2:LAUNDRY FOLDING. I believe that no one has never struggled with this.
3: Ordering things from drive-thrus. Ordering the food from inside is fine, but for some reason I can't handle a faceless, disembodied voice that I don't know asking me if I want fries with that. I can't handle drive-thrus. AT ALL.
4:Saying things using normal sayings and normal analogies. THe amount of times I mentally reffered to the pyramids as "inanimate Bill Cyphers" is painful, and the cassette beasts referenced augggghhhhhhhh
5: Getting references. Do I have to explain?

Driving. Here in Japan the law is really harsh, and I’m super scared and stressed every time I drive. Besides, I somehow got driving license without actually knowing to park, and parking is the worst task now.
