Talk:1423: Conversation
I have tried to think of what I could put in here, but I can't think of anything. Awkward. 108.162.216.149 (talk) 09:24, 19 September 2014 (UTC) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

By coincidence, on a Facebook Asperger syndrome group that I'm a member of, there was this bit of dialog, purportedly from a party someone had attended: A: So, what do you work at? B: I have an invalid pension. A. Ah, I see. What's wrong with you? B: I'm not capable of lying. --RenniePet (talk) 11:14, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
- Surely no one would actually say "What's wrong with you?" in that situation, perhaps someone with Asperger syndrome wouldn't notice, but that's so rude. 141.101.106.107 11:28, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
- Well, it was freely translated from Danish, and Danes are fairly blunt, without it necessarily being considered unfriendly. The original text:
- Hørt ved et selskab:
- - 'Nå, hvad laver du så til hverdag?'
- - 'Jeg er førtidspensionist.'
- - 'Okay, hvad fejler du?'
- - 'Jeg er ærlig.'

She took the candle with her...
I guess she felt it would have been too awkward to leave him there alone with the candle burning as a symbol of what could have been... --Mag748 (talk) 11:55, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
Regarding the comic, could what Megan does just be an "exit" out of the date? It seems to make sense that way —Artyer (talk) 16:21, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
He also drank his entire glass of wine during her (relatively short) comment.
This might be a commentary on online dating, where these sorts of questions crop up frequently, and people tend to give self-referential/empty answers to them. --16:22, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
