    Sounds like his gathering, arranged by him, with his friends.

    He can prep it.

    My take is that his single answer applies to them all, thusly:

    6 people are coming 6 of them are vegetarian 6 is when they are coming.

    He was conserving bandwidth.

    I feel like whenever someone posts a reasonably relatable marriage meme on Lemmy, all the terminally single people show up to demonstrate exactly why no one will love them.

      The comments here are pretty mild. Lemmy’s usually fine with it as long as it’s “husband bad” and not “wife bad”.

      laughs in autist

      Normies be setting the social/communication norms they themselves can’t reliably comprehend, and then call the ensuing confusion that they have normalized relatable.

      Sure, ok then, have fun with your inability to recognize simple patterns.

      I’ll stick to my autist friends, paramours, local wives with cuck husbands who are emotionally distant, and the occasional male twunk, ahhahahah!

        Hubs and I are ND asF and have all kinds of weird sex including nonmonogamy at one point. I’m still the husband in this meme most of the time, but sometimes he’s the husband in this meme. If you think you never miscommunicate, odds are you’re a REALLY bad communicator.

          Well so, for 1, ND is more broad that just autist.

          For 2… did I say or imply I don’t think I ever miscommunicate?

          For 3, my career was literally to communicate complex technical concepts and data to people without complex technical knowledge.

          I don’t understand how this is hard; hubbie here is responding sequentially, and is typing more slowly than wifey.

          This isn’t bad communication, its very easy to understand. Not everyone can type so fast, in every situation.

            by choice, right…

            Listen, moddo got peeved last time one of you adamantly outted yourselves. So lets just let drop it, I’m not going to argue with your hyperfixation to convince yourself.

              I don’t need to convice myself of anything, you need to learn that the words you say mean what they say.

              Sorry if my friend circle and sex life intimidates you…?

              And you’re in for a lot of laughs if you think I give a single fuck about what any random .world mod considers to be acceptable speech. I’ve already blocked most of the .world mods for hypocritically violating their own rules, if they’re complaining at me, I’m literally not hearing them, hahahah!

              Its also pretty rich to make a further jab, and then also say ‘this discussion is now over’ at the same time.

              You’re a very silly, passive aggressive person.

    she said “couple of questions” but she asked 3. So the last one doesn’t count. Also, she married him, pretty sure this isn’t a new trait of him

      “Couple of” colloquially means “a small number of”. She married him and is now poking mild fun at him, not threatening divorce.

      Honest question, if I have to ask for 3 pieces of information, would it help if I sent it in 3 messages?

      Message 1: how many people are coming to dinner?

      Message 2: are any vegetarian?

      Message 3: what time are they arriving?

      Personally I would prefer the 1 message with 3 questions vs the 3 messages with 1 question each(many messages in short time make me think something is wrong and urgent), what’s your preference?

        Nah for me 1 message is where it’s at, I was just joking. I like it when people send over one message with everything they need to tell or ask so I can respond without going into a back and forward, ESPECIALLY if I’m busy with work but not necessarily.

        I also ask multiple things in one message but people never ever take the time to respond to all of them… Fucking ever, it pisses me off lol, because I put effort into writing a coherent message then they just discard it most of the time :-/

      I’ve noticed that with my partner with ADHD, and also my sister with ADHD. Neither can easily deal with multiple topics in one message. Curious.
