I'm excited to see what everyone else's said, if we have a lot in common, and if some of us have some funny stuff too.

Also, promoting !autism@lemmy.autism.place

What are uniform and distant facial expressions?? This is what I'm imagining:

lol. Is that an HDMI port as mouth? :P

Basically meant a neutral facial expression with little variation, mostly staying the same. And distant as in "this has nothing to do with me" or "whatever..."

It looks like one! But what I was going for was a forced smile.

distant as in "this has nothing to do with me" or "whatever..."

ohhh yeahhhh, I know that feeling. I'm going to pay attention to see if I notice a resembling facial expression.

My guess is that there were too many strangers around for my liking so I just kinda retracted myself to wait and see. Which isn't all that helpful when you're the one to be assessed :D
