Sensory issues are so funny. No I can't eat the spaghetti you bought a slightly thicker spaghetti than usual. And today isn't a spaghetti day! Oh nevermind today I don't care. I have so little texture related sensory issues I'm so glad. Nvm I can feel all of my seams and I'm wearing the good pants and also please get me scissors I haven't cut the tag out of my new shirt yet. Oh my sensory issues with sound are nonexistent. Nevermind this hurts so bad. Nevermind it doesn't hurt anymore.

the problem with reading and writing leading to a strong vocabulary is that you tend to know the vibe of words instead of their meanings.
if I used this word in a sentence, would it make sense? absolutely. if you asked me what it meant, could I tell you? absolutely not.
#yeeeah#it also leads to: 'this is the perfect word for this context in both vibe and definition...#'but i don't know for sure that the recipient of this email actually knows that word...'#'and i don't want to confuse them or come across as talking down to them'#the solution is usually to say a functional but less satisfying word unfortunately#but that's generally just a work problem#tag rant#words#linguistics
