I get that people don't think like me.  I have a bit more trouble figuring out what the alternative is, though.  Not so much if I can actually see them, but as far as predicting, sux.

i understand that you have an opinion, PMS, but your wrong.

I never thought you would say that.

yes YOU do, i am making perfect sense.  if you would judt follow the logic....

I'd prefer to follow the cheesecake.

oh, girl, it goes straight to my thighs.

I'm not that high-mainenance.  I only need one.

Is this lacking theory of mind. I remember getting upset whenever people didn't answer me so I thought they were ignoring me so I keep asking and then they get mad and I think they were being mean because I wouldn't let them ignore me but my mother told me they are maybe thinking of an answer and I told her, then why don't they say so. At least I always say "Mmm let me think" to let people know I am thinking and she said "They aren't you. Just because you say it, doesn't mean everyone else will." Now I wait a few minutes before I ask again or I ask them if they are thinking.

I failed that Sally-Anne test when I was 27. It was done as a different scenario but still. How embarrassing.

i had no ToM whatsoever for ages.  i have learned it, but i still have to remind myself that not everyone else thinks as i do, more or less all the time.  so, i have to deal with that intellectually, and tell myself that others think differently, even if i don't know/believe this within myself, inherently.  if that makes sense.

It makes sense to me. Now when I make plans in my head I have to think to tell GA about them because usually I think if I have thought about it, then he knows automatically.

I didn't talk much as a kid probably because I thought that if I knew something, everybody else did too.

Ahhhh, yes.  I do this a lot to poor Mordok...start conversations in the middle.  Logically I know he doesn't know something just because I know it, but sometimes the brain goes on autopilot and whoooosh!  He's looking at me all confused and I have no idea why.

That sounds unappealingly civilized.

Exactly.  I should just have them team up and build me a sexbot with some kind of program/alogrythm that allows the 'bot to have the illusion of thinking on its own.

I fail to follow your logic but I'm sure it's fantastically clever and amusing.  care to explain it to the dumb blonde?

[McGiver]

the illusion of thinking on ones own is what got me.
