It makes me laugh too savvy:rotfl:

"Tears in your eyes" is also contextual you see - sometimes it's bad (real crying upset) and sometimes it's good (from laughing). Not that anyone is interested in this rambling comment now:rotfl::rotfl:.

(And not that I understand "context" as I'm theoretically context-blind in my autism. Except that, sometimes I mean I am and I am not (although how would I know about the occasions on which I really was "blind" to the context?:think:) - but I don't really get the plotline to any movies I watch. I'm obviously seeing them in a different way, because of my condition and picking out tiny details. I need to read (or see) a film review and then I will get what the movie was about - but, watching it, I would never have known - and still won't if I go and watch it now (after having heard or read the review). I didn't realise this was autism, until after I was diagnosed several years ago (drones on again...:rotfl:) but it's clear to me that that's now the case - always been the way I've seen things and thought things were that way and it's not actually a problem (although it's also a reason, no doubt, why I pick up on details of other things and why I notice everything, including theoretical background (and therefore foreground, like everything in the room except other people's facial expressions is) music that - I've never been able to write an assignment or, even, with most music, to operate a photocopier. Something simple as pressing a button, I get distracted by the music behind (that said, the sound of a photocopier is more musical and less disturbing than the sound of current pop music for the past 20 years:rotfl:) - I only ever found one "song" - or actually a series of songs in different versions - that I could work with whilst it was on without really concentrating on it and it is an instrumental - so not really a "song" - unless you count singing along to/'humming' the tune. Da da da da da da...:rotfl::rotfl:. That's a "song"!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. X-Cabs Neuro 99 btw, classic radio hit version that you just can't escape from on the radio to which I don't listen no doubt:rotfl:.)

Hope everyone manages to get some sleep. Our thermostat thing in the hall is currently registering 27 degrees and it gets hotter as you go up the stairs. All covers stripped from the bed, iced water on hand but still boiling.
