    It’s surprising how often people think they need to explain very simple concepts to me, while I’m talking about things that already require understanding what they’re explaining, and several other things as well.

    tl;dr: Whoosh!

      😆 Re-re-reading it, i think it can be seen both ways: either that you didn’t get OP’s context, or others didn’t get your irony. (I shall assume it was).

      For anyone who still wonders: the “literally” in Steve’s first answer gives it away – “This is an autistic place but OP’s question assumes that everyone is aware of the context, so let me make a point by taking the question as literal while disregarding the context, and answer accordingly.” – Quite an ND joke.
