Fellow Hexbearians,
I was thinking about how embarrassing it is to ask questions about things that seem obvious, so why not make a thread here? We can pool our understanding and clear up any misconceptions we picked up living in a world not built for neurodiverse people.
Ask questions about things you don’t understand that might seem obvious. If there are things you do understand in someone else’s question, please do so and help clear it up.
I ask that we ask and answer questions sincerely. This is a discussion about confusion and trying to understand. I think it would feel safer if we don’t think we’re being mocked or trolled.
I’ll put a comment in the thread to get things rolling.
I’ve always had a really hard time remembering song lyrics. So much so that whenever I’m asked about a favorite song people get annoyed at me for not remembering much. Remembering some lines from a movie or something I read tends to be easier for me so maybe it’s like a visual v. auditory memorization sort of thing.
i’m very bad about remembering the vibes of song lyrics, but not the actual words and phrases exactly
Same. Probably because I have an undiagnosed hearing processing disorder. I can hear a pin drop three miles away but I can’t watch a Christopher Nolan movie without subtitles.
I’d blame Nolan for that one, lots of movies are
really poorly mixed“cinematic”How in the world was I able to understand Bane perfectly? Like what the actual fuck?
If I had to guess, the effects they added to his voice actually make it easier to hear, if only because it can now penetrate the background noise
That’s interesting, I’m on the opposite end. I can give you a summary of the song and vibes and memorize the melody, but I can’t remember exact words to save my life
I think it’s an auditory issue for me too. I can read things and recite, but I can never hear song lyrics on the first go around of just listening. I have to read the lyrics later to understand what they’re about.
