It's already been said, more or less, but how does Onstad read my diseased brain?

Recently, my brain even prevented me from entering a grocery store.

Grace Jones is a dude right?  I've always thought that.  She's must have come out and admitted it by now I'm sure.

Grace Jones is beyond such pathetic mortal three-dimensional concepts such as gender.

This makes me realize, suddenly, that I have been having a problem like this lately. Actually for like a year, but suddenly it is particularly bad.

Today I walked into a store and the salesman asked me what I wanted to buy, and I was just PARALYZED by the knowledge of all of these assumptions he was going to make about me, and all of the horrible things he must think about me for wanting him to help me buy an expensive product. I stood there staring at him for long enough that afterwards my brother said "what the hell is wrong with you??"

Somehow, thinking about it made me realize that I get into these situations a lot, and maybe it is not normal for that to happen.

It has something to do with feeling like people have an expectation that I am not fulfilling. Even when it's something that... 2 minutes later I realize was completely stupid.

The SO is like that. She'll have a problem finding something, and when a salesperson comes over she'll say she's fine, just so she doesn't have to interact with the person and potentially look dumb.

Um, people. That is a person who can't get a better job than salesperson in a store? Is there really a good reason to feel inadequate in comparison? I mean, apologies to all of you are are salespeople and also writing the great American novel on the side but really, get a grip.

Internet research is my in-store salesperson.

Hooray for no human contact.

yeah, thinking about it logically does not really help.
