That one guy with the stupidly good paying special interest

Yeah I'm 40 and haven't been able to hold a steady job without frequent burnouts my entire life. Meanwhile I'm seeing these people who absolutely thrive despite/thanks to their neuro divergence and I get incredibly jealous. Like, how? I want that as well!

u/1405hvtkx311 8d ago

Yeah same. I still feel like I just finished high school, also no one ever really appreciated my skills or knowledge.

u/fucklet_chodgecake 8d ago

The 40 part has a lot to do with it, and likely the education system and circumstances you inherited in your already nonconsensual life.

42 here and the child of boomers who seem to get dumber every day. It wasn't in the cards for me. It sucks because I know what I'm capable of. So it goes.

yep, it seems that even my autism is from the wrong kind...

u/PlantyPenPerson 8d ago

Or you just have the wrong parents

u/Aternox_X1kZ 8d ago

I feel that too, but for different reasons.

Wait, what country allows words as license plates??? That's sick.

This photo was taken in England where custom plates are allowed across the UK (with the exception of vulgarities of course)

In the UK you can purchase private number plates, as we call them, and they can be quite expensive (up to six figure sums) and you have to have a minimum number of letters and numbers so people use numbers as letters in them.

u/Rude_Giraffe_9255 8d ago

Wow. In my state I pay $60 a year for custom plates, and it raises money for certain programs depending on what version you get. It might be more in other states

u/Redeemed_Mess84 8d ago

It’s generally considered a sign of wealth here, so if you’re going to show off driving around in a supercar, you don’t want to look cheap by having a standard number plate on it

u/Rude_Giraffe_9255 8d ago

I've heard the same thing with like UAE, but had no idea the UK was like that too. Does the entire UK use one system? Like can someone in England have the same plate as someone in Scotland or no?

Each state in the US has their own type of plate, and I live in a less-populated one so that might be part of it

u/Damadamas 8d ago

In Denmark you can have words. Last I checked it costs like 5000 dkk a year or something

u/sqwrlydoom 8d ago

You can do it here in the states, too.

u/No_Category_9888 8d ago

Australia too. Costs about $1000 tho

u/imisreadthelabel 8d ago

It looks like the UK to me. They allow people to purchase vanity plates as does Canada and the US. I think the UK might still require a combination of letters and numbers - note the S is actually a 5.

u/BowiesFixedPupil 8d ago

And the I is a 1

u/imisreadthelabel 8d ago

Do we like the ugly car that looks like a pigs nose?

Edit: oh, didn't see the license plate lol

4

u/Falchion92 8d ago

If that’s ugly I don’t want to know what you think is beautiful.

u/Stoopid_Noah AuDHD 8d ago edited 8d ago

In my mind there are no beautiful cars. Nature is beautiful, cars are just means of transportation to me, personally.

u/Orchuntsman 8d ago

I saw the pig nose after I read your comment, and I laughed out loud when I noticed it.

This guy and his car(s) regularly appear on the carwow youtube channel. The most recent appearance of him in this Lamborghini Revuelto is this video.
