Oh, look, I have extra time before I need to get moving. How much extra time? I dunno, probably infinite.
Every introvert ever
Me - “Fuck it I’m gonna be late for work today”
Also me - Shows up a half hour early anyway
Now she has to wait a whole hour to poop on the CEO’s car.
This is me any time I’m going somewhere. If I have to get on a plane at 1PM, I’m arriving in the airport at 9AM at the latest. Otherwise, I just feel increasingly anxious the longer I wait. I’d rather spend three and a half hours sitting in a terminal than be stressing out about whether I’m going to make it in time.
I did this once at a regional airport, and the employees weren’t even there yet.
Ditto! All it takes is one trip where unforseen complications cause you to miss a flight!
I could have written exactly this comment
This is me. Last time I was so early there was another flight, going to the same place I was, getting ready to board. On a whim I asked if I could switch to that one since I was there already, and managed to get a seat. I was home before my original flight even took off lol.
I could be at the terminal three hours early, and I’ll still feel nervous and anxious until I’m on the plane…
me except I’m late
Sorry I’m late, I got distracted by worrying about what if I’m late.
Life hack: forbid yourself from checking the time on the way there. That way you won’t be able to keep checking to make sure you’ll be there on time (and hurrying as a consequence), and it’ll force you to set off long enough in advance.
So did Extra Fabulous start the disconnected other eye style?
Exactly my first thought. Plus it’s especially weird on a bird where the eyes are on either side of the head normally
Pro tip: If you are invited home to someone - do not, repeat not, be one hour early.
This is why I try and get all my medical appointments in the morning. Less time my body forces me into ‘wait mode’
Portable gaming is perfect for this.
You fully prepare and even travel to the thing and then you can set an alarm and play games while in limbo until the start time.I did this with my Steam Deck last week (or was it two weeks ago…).
I thought this was an ADHD meme, but someone like me would’ve still been late in the last panel.
This, but with an extra step where I start preparing 5 minutes too late, can’t find shit, and then end up having to hurry so I arrive sweaty ans barely on time or too late
That’s basically what goes through my head when someone compliments me on my punctuality.
My punctuality is always preceded by me getting there way early, and waiting in my car.
I’ve read that this is common among people with ADHD, but I very much do not have ADHD and I very much struggle with this.
waiting mode, amirite
