Oh are we talking about autistic Dennis because he's everything to me. He has scripts he made up for social interactions and when those scripts fail he has no idea what to do. He is sensitive to loud noises and textures and smells. He has trouble understanding and verbalizing his own emotions as well as others. He stims whenever he gets overwhelmed. The Velcro shoes! The clumsiness! Trying to hard to be good and cool but not understanding how to do that, his only social role models Frank and Barbara. GOD

YOU GET IT!!!!! it is like the middle of the night and my brain feels like sludge right now so thank you for bringing all the evidence...WHEN HIS SCRIPTS FAIL HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!! he's NOT ALLOWED to eat apples with the skin on HE'S NOT ALLOWED (not just toxins for me that's autism babey). and the velcro shoes!!! makes me feel better about myself because i can't tie my laces and probably never will thank you dennis for this representation....he and mac are top tier autism x adhd canon which is why the macdennis apartment feels like home to me because there's nothing neurotypical about that home
