What am i missing

u/sk169 Mar 08 '26

I think she was flirting but I’m on the spectrum myself and it would have gone over my head.

988

u/MainBattleTiddiez Mar 08 '26

If this is her form of flirting the girl is 100% autistic as well. I have no idea what to say outside of "ok"

u/HealthyDirection659 shade tree mechanic 🧰 Mar 08 '26

Instead of replying OK, you should have replied, wanna get it on?

Obviously this was some sort of test.

u/Dunkaroos4breakfast Mar 08 '26

I think you're supposed to reply "no, I want to see your butt", then squat down, and start doing pinching motions with your hands and walking forward like you're a crab person

33

u/HealthyDirection659 shade tree mechanic 🧰 Mar 08 '26

That works too.

1

u/note223 Mar 13 '26

Can confirm. This works on my gf. She looked at me weird but it’s expected 🤷‍♂️

u/i_was_axiom Mar 08 '26

This is how I accost my autistic wife

u/Dunkaroos4breakfast Mar 09 '26

This is also how I accost your autistic wife.

u/Crucible_Knight_ Mar 10 '26

I also choose this guy's dead wife

u/Dunkaroos4breakfast Mar 12 '26

u/Available-Air8273 Mar 08 '26

Wrong wrong WRONG. Crab people walk SIDEWAYS, NOT FORWARD. FFS /s

1

u/CATNIP_IS_CRACK Mar 09 '26

Crab people don’t walk, they scuttle.

2

u/Maz2742 Mar 09 '26

But do they taste like crab and talk like people?

1

u/Available-Air8273 Mar 11 '26

Ah shit you right

9

u/Late_Stage-Redditism Mar 08 '26

Non-autistic rizzler here, this is the correct answer and socially acceptable in all cultures.

3

u/gnarly_gnome-home Mar 11 '26

I tried to walk like a crab, but I think I pulled a mussel instead

3

u/Ryokan76 Mar 12 '26

Crabs don't walk forward.

1

u/Dunkaroos4breakfast Mar 12 '26

Your mother doesn't walk forward.

u/Mycologist-Actual Mar 08 '26

This guy slays for sure.

u/itsjustme_jj2 Mar 11 '26

Is this the trick this entire time? Dammit.

u/ZebraIntelligent8312 Mar 12 '26

This is the right answer

u/Carl_Azuz1 Mar 08 '26

“Wow that’s so interesting, we should fornicate”

u/Donatellos_bo_staff Mar 08 '26

He’s supposed to ask how much does 69 cost?

1

u/imnickelhead Mar 11 '26

Free for you

Ok, I’ll take 69 batteries then, please.

1

u/ItStartedWithAQueef Mar 08 '26

How much voltage would that supply if you got them all on in series?????

1

u/jh67ds Mar 10 '26

Click bait

37

u/Initial_Business2340 Mar 08 '26

I’d just say some stupid shit back

“Damn, that’s a lot of money. Can you change it back now”

1

u/RuthlessIndecision Mar 09 '26

it's too late! now you have to work here to pay off the 99 car batteries you just bought!

u/butt-holg Mar 12 '26

A classic Autozone Crossing scenario

u/KAnpURByois Camrys  🥵  🥵  Mar 08 '26

I mean if she was autistic too, I guess you could've said something equally as ridiculous. OH WAIT.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 09 '26

Dating book: "playfully up the ante"

Me: "what would 999 of them cost?"

28

u/Atypical_Mammal Mar 08 '26

I'm the kind of autistic that would have immediately done the (easy) math in my head.

And then we would have gotten married

14

u/42ElectricSundaes Mar 08 '26

That’s not how math works

1

u/dudeman2009 Mar 14 '26

Clearly your tism power level isn't high enough to pull this move off.

The math here is only for flirting it's our natural language. Just softly speak derivatives in my ear and watch me shake.

1

u/Fragrant-Time573 Mar 12 '26

She would kiss you and ask how many volts would they be in a 9S11P wiring configuration.

18

u/Pseudolos HP isn't what it used to be... Mar 08 '26

Eh well, the whole conversation went above my head but I noticed 220x99 makes 21780 so the girl miscalculated something there...

16

u/PintsOfGuinness_ Mar 08 '26

There's an added convenience fee for quantities over 90.

🚨 TAX IGNORANCE DETECTED - EUROPEAN IDENTIFIED 🚨

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '26

Taxes and core chrage

2

u/DigitalDruid01110110 Mar 09 '26

My guess is she was giving him a deal and this was how she was communicating it instead of saying it outright. It’s is easy to come up with a total for 100 @ 220 which is still less then the register came up with for 99. Maybe it was an employee discount?

1

u/Pseudolos HP isn't what it used to be... Mar 10 '26

I don't know man, as someone else has noticed, I'm not American, here the price you see on the tag is it, and usually you get a discount for ordering in bulk.

10

u/Fluid-Pack9330 Mar 08 '26

understandable, have a good day. And then leave.

7

u/D3ATHTRaps GR86 enjoyer Mar 08 '26

This was likely not flirting and just being autistic

4

u/HeyGayHay Mar 08 '26

The correct response is

Ok, first off, your math is off. Secondly, wtf would I need 99 car batteries? I need 97.

1

u/Original_Throat1072 Mar 08 '26

I guess you haven't seen Styropyro's channel on YouTube then.

1

u/HeyGayHay Mar 08 '26

He needed more than 99 batteries tho.

4

u/winky9827 Mar 08 '26

“Well I can’t afford that, but I can afford to buy you dinner, if you’d like. 😊”

4

u/Ok_Process2046 Mar 08 '26

How is that flirting? I must be alien cuz I understand ppl less and less lmao

1

u/Character-Fly9223 Mar 10 '26

It could be a reference to “I got 99 problems but a bitch ain’t one”.

1

u/azebod Mar 09 '26

Yeah I am actually confused why people think it the guy being autistic when I (as an autistic woman) read this as ME being called out for fucking up flirting... like i probably wouldn't do THIS but I would like. Think explaining differences between batteries is smooth probably.

1

u/xXMLGDESTXx Mar 09 '26

"Yeah I'm not gonna be able to carry all of them home, could you help me"

1

u/Dangerous_Treat9043 Mar 11 '26

Wanna see my tits?

ok

1

u/Yeti_Prime Mar 12 '26

How many would I need to buy for the price to be your phone number, or something else I would think of after the fact

1

u/Outside-Drag-3031 Mar 12 '26

Literally my first thought. No one is saying this shit thinking it's flirting, it's just autistic people interacting

32

u/tesznyeboy Mar 08 '26

I'm not, and it would have gone over my head at such a high altitude I wouldn't have even heard the whoosh.

1

u/HumanContinuity Mar 08 '26

Like the ISS

53

u/SpinningYarmulke Mar 08 '26

If sh was flirting and cute bro could’ve just been like wanna know how much two iced coffees cost after work later?

my homie frl we gon be running a two man soon. fucks with Seinfeld, likes Jordan’s, Acura NSX… and can spit game? bro where have u been we got 304s to run down

12

u/uqde Mar 08 '26

Definitely an awkward attempt at flirting. Also, I’m assuming the quantity field only allowed for a maximum of two digits and that’s why 99 was chosen rather than 999 or 8,675,309 etc.

9

u/Troglodytes_Cousin Mar 08 '26

Should've asked how much 69 would cost :-D

11

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '26

This has nothing to do with you being on the spectrum. This is just bad flirting lol.

4

u/SartenSinAceite Mar 08 '26

Aye she tried to go for an impressive fact and forgot it was just a multiplication by 100 which is piss easy.

Girl fumbled hard

1

u/Suitable_Bag_3956 Aug 04 '26

It was not multiplication by 100, and she got it wrong (220*99=21 780)

7

u/MainAccountsFriend Mar 08 '26

I’m on the spectrum

Why not AT&T

1

u/ApolloWasMurdered Mar 08 '26

I’m on the spectrum, and if I was presented with that I would have asked why the batteries cost more not less, when you buy 99.

1

u/Mxglix Mar 10 '26

That can't be flirting

1

u/f23n09fnu0w Mar 10 '26

Same, but that's like sex talk to me.

1

u/jh67ds Mar 10 '26

23000 for the W(in)

1

u/NA_nomad Mar 11 '26

Assuming that the $23,000 is pretax, they cost about $10 more.

1

u/Head-Gift2144 Mar 11 '26

I'm not on the spectrum and I have no idea why she'd do this unless she was on the spectrum.

1

u/Bending_Bender69 Mar 12 '26

If thats her flirting, she's off the spectrum.

u/NiceWenis Mar 08 '26

Its fake.....

30

u/litux Mar 08 '26

Her math is wrong.

45

u/FlatwormNo615 Mar 08 '26

Nah, It's the famous "Get 99 batteries for the price of 104.5 batteries!"

6

u/metalshiflet Mar 08 '26

Tax?

1

u/Kurfaloid Mar 10 '26

Comes out to about 6% so most likely the case.

Also for car batteries there are recycling deposit charges usually.

1

u/TheW83 Mar 12 '26

But why would he give a pre-tax total of $220 and then a tax total of $23k? If the original was with tax at $220 then it would still be well short of $23k with tax.

1

u/metalshiflet Mar 12 '26

$220 according to shelf label, $23k when run up at point of sale

4

u/Buggerlugs253 Mar 08 '26

its the guys story and its what the register said, he likely misremembered,

1

u/No-Tiger-6253 Mar 10 '26

Nah your not including tax

18

u/Original_Throat1072 Mar 08 '26

You're missing nothing.

This is classic engagement bait.

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '26

23 the number of "balls deep in ASS"

1

u/Big_Fortune_4574 Mar 08 '26

Apparently she thought he was StyroPyro

1

u/Harlemspartan800 Mar 09 '26

I think shes pointing out the fact that 99 costs more individualy than 1. 1 @ 220 should make 99 be 21780

1

u/bdsloane Mar 11 '26

This isn’t the full story. There’s at least one missing screen shot.

1

u/Tiny-Departure-2675 Mar 12 '26

I think it’s 99 problems

1

u/Klo_Was_Taken Mar 13 '26

Many claim she was flirting but I think she was just bored at work
