Supermarket Sensory Overload: The Cheese Aisle
00:00:00
Speaker
Love it, love it. Yes, so yeah, as often would go with our when we kind of start our podcast intro, often, at least twice before, it's been like supermarkets have been a theme, and it's going to be another theme. I was in there today before I got home from work.
00:00:21
Speaker
realizing what a sensory overload a supermarket is for me. Oh, right. But with really specific areas. Okay. You know, like cheese. Cheese.
00:00:35
Speaker
The cheese aisle. The cheese aisle. Is it a bit, is it a bit intimidating? Do you feel? Well, no, it's more frustrating because I'm on a low cholesterol diet. Oh, right. It can't eat anything. Well, you can eat, you can eat fetters quite, is okay-ish.
00:00:58
Speaker
Yes, yes, no, feta's good, yeah, yeah. In fact, I had a feta cheese at my pizza last night. Oh, very nice. Yeah. So, yeah. Do you have a section? Do you have a section that kind of like, you know, pushes you over the edge in a supermarket? You know what, I mean, when you said the cheese,
00:01:26
Speaker
aisle or the cheese section, that does give me a slight palpitation because there's just a lot of it. There's a lot of them. And I don't know, because there's part, it's a little bit like wine, right? You kind of think I should know about all of these cheeses, but I only kind of know a bunch of them.
00:01:51
Speaker
Superficial. And the rest are just laughing at me, kind of going, yeah, you've unsophisticated piece of sheet. You know, and I'm like, I just want to share that, mate. Yeah. And you're like, what's with the accent, mate? Well, that was, um, that was possible. I don't know. Yeah. That was like a European cheese. Frank Franco Italian was almost, yeah.
00:02:17
Speaker
Yes. Is a Franco Italian goat cheese?
00:02:22
Speaker
Yeah. Laughing at me. Well, I mean, I'm kind of lucky because I live in in Northern Italy. So, you know, like, wow, I live like a stone's throw away from where Gorgonzola comes from. Oh, wow. It's actually a town called Gorgonzola. Of course it is. I mean, is it made out of Gorgonzola or the whole town? Gorgonzola. The mayor is made out of Gorgonzola.
00:02:51
Speaker
They drive around in the Gorgonzola ball cheese car. Yeah. Yeah. The cheese with the double G. Cheese with the double G. That sounds like a rap song. Now then, for some reason, my mouse has decided to stop working, which is a little bit annoying. Oh, there we go. It's back online.
Welcome to ADHDville: Embracing Adult ADHD with Humor
00:03:15
Speaker
Alright, and with that thankful technical hitch avoided, welcome to ADHDville. Yes. I've actually written a song for this but I need more time. I've even got lyrics. Nice. Yeah.
00:03:43
Speaker
I've written a little ditty for the intro and I've written it, but I need time to rehearse it a bit, just to get the cadence right. But it's all in there. Actually, more than that, I woke up at about four o'clock in the morning, it was in my head, the words were suddenly in my head, and I had to get up. Four o'clock in the morning, got up, wrote down the lyrics. Dedication, mate. Dedication.
00:04:08
Speaker
You're dedicated to the pod. I love it. Anyway, hello. I'm Paul Thompson. I was rubber stamped with ADHD four months ago, which coincides with the lifespan of a dragonfly or the common house fly.
00:04:23
Speaker
Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Four months. That's all they live for. Wow. Did a bit of research. And then I thought, of course, because I'm ADHD, I was like scurried around. Thought, oh, what's the worst? What animal has the least? And it's actually an American sand borrowing mayfly.
00:04:46
Speaker
the only um it's the shortest adult uh lifespan in the animal kingdom lives less than one hour after they reach adulthood with the females having just five minutes to breed before they die as well what whoa since being like four months it's like for them that's like oh my god that's like eternity
00:05:13
Speaker
I mean, yeah, I mean, they won't even get through an average film. Like, I mean, an hour to date someone and then kind of get into the sack. I mean that. Yeah, exactly. I don't know if we've got time to ask her a phone number.
00:05:34
Speaker
They must have their dating game must be like off the charts. It must be so good. It's like, boom, you're an adult, right? Hey, get your phone real quick. Let's go out. We don't have time for a cab or anything. So come around my place.
00:05:55
Speaker
Right. I think you can possibly, if you phone for a pizza early, you might be able to get it there in, in, in time. Yeah. And then it's going to like, get your coat, love your pulled. Yeah. And then a quick cigarette. Oh, she said that to him. She could say that to him, of course. You know.
00:06:15
Speaker
Yeah. Wow. Well, thankfully, I have a bit more time. Oh yeah. And I am, I forgot to mention me, I am Martin Weston. I was diagnosed with ADHD in 2013, which is 11 years ago, which is the average lifespan of an animal that I have not researched. Various.
00:06:38
Speaker
So we're just two mates who, by coincidence or not, after 39 years of friendship, discover that we're co-ADHD-ers. It's really important to say that this is an entertainment podcast about adult ADHD and does not substitute for individualized advice from qualified health professionals. So do not take any advice from us. No, no, no. It goes so well. We're just here, both of us, we're just here as a kind of all inclusive
00:07:06
Speaker
All inclusive ADHD park bench with room for everyone, including your doppelgangers, your alter egos, your body doubles, your chaperones, and even, yes, your best buddies. Still here? Great. Then grab your jet packs, petalos, space hoppers, or any other transportation methods, and let us take you to ADHDville, an imaginary town that we've created in our minds. We're in our minds. We like to explore different parts of ADHD and the D.
00:07:36
Speaker
And we start off as always here in the Town Hall in the Mayor's Office where we the joint mayors of ADHD will take care of business. I'm just looking, just rustling around my notes here and I see that on our meeting this is a onesie subject episode where we just talk about one thing.
Celebrating Weirdness: Personal Quirks and Community
00:08:02
Speaker
And this week we're talking all about
00:08:05
Speaker
the joy of being weird. Is that right? Yeah. Is that right? A kind of an ode to weirdness, like celebrating weirdness, really. A bit of a fun, fun episode. Yeah. All right. A little bit of a funsy. All right. So where are we going to go for this? I kind of thought, so we can't take the mayor's car today.
00:08:30
Speaker
because oh is it in the garage again well someone puked up in the back of it and uh you know wasn't me wasn't me i all right okay well i'll just say it's someone i don't know who maybe it was babs from accounts i don't know but anywho because you know she likes to drink that's what i'm saying um if a binge thing's a bit of a binge thing going on
00:08:57
Speaker
It could be an issue. Maybe that's why our mayor's office doesn't have much cash. Maybe we need to dig into that. But anyway, so we don't have the car. So I thought as this was a weird episode.
00:09:13
Speaker
We would go down into the, into the bunker under the, under the, uh, under the, uh, I didn't even know we had one. Yeah. We have a secret bunker where all the weird things happen. So it seems like a perfect place. So weirdly that actually touches me in a lovely place. No, no, it touches me. It says, this is on my weird list.
00:09:41
Speaker
Oh, wow. Okay. Well, we'll hold on to that thought. So my weird list. We'll put a pin in that for now. And we're just going to walk over to the elevator. All right. Oh, it's got an elevator too. Oh yeah. And we're going to go down, right? So I'll push the button. All right. Oh, here it is.
00:10:08
Speaker
Wow, sound effects too. No, I mean, not sound effects, only actual elevator, right? I was going to say. Is music inside the elevator? Well, yeah, because, you know.
00:10:20
Speaker
I just have to go down. This is the kind of slightly embarrassing. Elevators almost went into my weird list. Almost. I swear to God, yesterday, it almost went in there and it got edited out. Oh, here we go. All right. Out of the elevator, into the bunker.
00:10:48
Speaker
where we can talk about. What you got? Lay it on me. I've got here. Let's just kick off. I've got like a like, because it's like weird. What is weird? Okay. Officially it's the feel or cause to feel discomfort, confusion.
00:11:03
Speaker
or fear because of perceived strangeness perceived I would say I would make it bold italics and underlined perceived weirdness because you know what you know you could like say what you like about weird but for us it's just mostly normal stuff
00:11:22
Speaker
um because i thought i thought i could have i was i thought it was weird my dad calls me his weird son still does yeah okay right it's always it was always a freaking badge of honor i'm not sure what he thought it was
00:11:39
Speaker
Well, I think I knew what he thought it was. It was like to put me down. To me, I never took it as a put down. Never. It was always like, oh, say it to me again, big boy.
00:11:55
Speaker
All right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, that got weird real quick. It's the theme, isn't it? Yeah. Weird always felt normal to me, but you know, so, um, it seems to me, well, I think one of the reasons why we put it in there is an episode theme.
00:12:20
Speaker
because TikTok is a wash with amazing, you know, colorful characters. You know, really, I've got down here like a list of like I did a bit of a thing in Wikipedia Thesaurus. ADHD is full of interesting quirks, eccentricities, peculiarities, aberrations, kinks, and even whimsicalities
00:12:44
Speaker
Oh, whimsicalities. Yeah. Cause it is, you go through like the Tik TOK community with ADHD and it's like, sometimes it just makes me laugh. Right. And I don't feel like I need to write to anyone. It's like, wow. Yeah.
00:13:06
Speaker
Yeah, no, there's a lot of fun, fun stuff out there. Tons. Oodles. Oodles of it. One thing that comes to my mind, I think it was on the last episode, Martin, you talked about your pocket fluff. Oh, yeah. Yeah. That was a while ago. But yes, I talked about all the stuff in my pocket. Yeah.
00:13:34
Speaker
Yes, where I would just collect things in my pocket. I've done that all my life. I think that's only because my mum was like, don't throw that on the ground. And I went, oh, I don't know where to put it. I'll just put it in my pocket.
00:13:49
Speaker
And then for the rest of my life, all my, all my bits of rubbish just go straight in my pocket. I think given a similar situation, I can picture myself now, not so much now, I'm a bit better now, a bit more mature. Um, but in the past I would have like squirreled something away rather than be bothered to like go to the other end of the house and put it in a bin. I just like put it in this like little crevice. I think no one ever find it there out of harm's way.
00:14:20
Speaker
Right. And yeah, that's it. You don't see it again for like a couple of years. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Or generations pass, you know, people find like, I don't know, kind of an old empty packet of twiglets, you know, squirreled away behind the shower somewhere between a couple of slots, a couple of, you know, I don't know where
00:14:48
Speaker
Right. I mean, like, because because we talk about weirdness, right. And and we, you know, in your definition, it's kind of like where you're outside of the norm. Right. Yeah. And you kind of do these these things. I just want to kind of like nod to some of the stuff that that would include. So, you know, you know, you know, that kind of
00:15:15
Speaker
Like for years, I would say really weird, inappropriate things at inappropriate times. Like it just kind of comes out like, like someone asks me a question and then I don't really have a good answer. And then just something weird pops out and then one like stares at me and you kind of go, yeah.
00:15:39
Speaker
There's lots of vocal stims where you repeat words over and over or you make up weird words, nonsensical
00:15:58
Speaker
languages, you know, where you almost can become like different characters. You know, when you're walking around the house, whatever, and you're pretending to be like some other completely other character and do these weird voices.
00:16:15
Speaker
The weirdest, the most inappropriate thing I've ever done and it still makes me cringe to this day. I was invited to, it was like a friend of mine, do you remember Pete who worked in Tylee Woodman? Really nice guy.
00:16:34
Speaker
I can't remember his surname. Anyway, we were working together at one point, and then he moved up to London. He said, oh, Paul, would you come up to London? My age is having a party. Would you come up? I said, OK. So I got on the train, went up to London, met up with him, and he said, oh, there's a bit of gossip going around at the moment. My boss is poking the payroll.
00:16:59
Speaker
Right. All right. Palking the payroll, which is like a London English slang for someone who's having sex with with their secretary or someone that shouldn't be doing insight internally. Right. Palking the payroll. And I'd never heard of that expression before. And it just it clearly clicked somewhere in my mind as like a potential dopamine hit. So I kind of like partied there in my memory. And then we went to the party. Right.
00:17:28
Speaker
And then I mentioned really, I don't know who, but clearly someone overheard me talking about the boss poking the payroll at the party. Right. And then things started to kick off.
00:17:45
Speaker
Oh wow. People started to like, there was a guy, I remember the guy came up to me and people had to stand in between us. And I think he was like one of the minions of the boss. And he'd, I then, I gathered later that he'd heard out, he'd found out that I said this at his party and people got really, really pissed off with me.
00:18:08
Speaker
And another thing about what the hell, but I was thinking about it literally two weeks ago, because this is after 20 years of shame about that, right? 20 years of shame. I think I just loved the sound of it.
00:18:26
Speaker
That was all it was Hold the payroll. I just like the sound of it. I didn't I didn't obviously go out go there to like I didn't know his boss I didn't want to go out there to upset him. I didn't care less, you know Wow
00:18:42
Speaker
And I'm normally a freaking people pleaser. So that, where's that, where's that coming from? I know, right? It's just, so I think it was pulled the payroll, just like, God, that sounds so good. Yeah. I mean, ADHD also has impulsiveness.
00:18:58
Speaker
as well. And sometimes these things just pop out. And it would pull for Pete as well, my mate. It caused huge embarrassment for him. Right? Oh dear, oh dear. That was a day. Sorry, Pete. That was a day. That was an evening.
00:19:18
Speaker
Boy, you know what? I can remember I was at school and Someone said to me that our art teacher had a conversation with them and that And it was It was a
00:19:37
Speaker
Oh, what am I saying? Oh, okay. Yes. So she was saying, so our art teacher was saying to this person that when she went on holiday with her husband, they liked to test the bed.
00:19:53
Speaker
like bouncing around down on on the bed and obviously this this person thought well that's a weird thing to say and then they told me they said oh we know our art teacher when she goes on on vacation with her husband they'd like to test the
00:20:11
Speaker
bed. I went, okay, stored that away. And then randomly, I don't know, about a week or two later, I'm just walking in between classes, right? Going from English to French or something. And then I bump into the art teacher who just come back from vacation, right? Because her first day back, I went, oh, she's back. So I just went up to her. Is she the same art teacher was very attractive?
00:20:42
Speaker
No, I mean, she was attractive, but not but, yeah, there was the other one that was extremely okay. Okay. But so, yes, so she she came back from vacation and then I I went straight up to her in the middle of like the hallway. I said, oh, welcome back. Did you and your husband like bouncing up and down on the bed?
00:21:12
Speaker
I see it. It's just like stopped and like glared at me for like 10 seconds. And I just felt like I was like, I shriveled into a sort of raisin and scuttled off. I thought, what the hell? What?
00:21:30
Speaker
Yeah, anyway. Yeah. Yeah. So there's so there's saying really weird things. Yeah.
Secret Spaces and Weird Obsessions
00:21:40
Speaker
Have you have you ever kind of gone around doing doing karate chops?
00:21:45
Speaker
And that kind of thing. We just like kind of going around the house. Was that just me? Not yet, but I can imagine yourself doing it. Yeah, yeah. Is this your way of saying that you did?
00:22:05
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, yeah. Okay. So, yeah, number one super guy. Quicker than the human eye. Oh, no, I can't even remember the next line. He's got style, a groovy style and something that just won't stop. When the going gets tough, he's super hot with a Hong Kong foowee chop. What? Hong Kong foowee.
00:22:36
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. That's a classic car cartoon from my, from my, all right. So, uh, maybe now is a good time to pull out the pin on the elevator.
00:22:50
Speaker
Oh, okay. Yeah, because I've got, I had to think for, um, hiding in tiny, tiny spaces. All right. Squirreling away, but also like also connected to, I've always really, really been fascinated with secret spaces.
00:23:11
Speaker
Ooh, that you could hide in. That no one knows about, that you could hide in. Yeah. And like the famous kids story about their secret garden, that just hits the spot for me. Like my garden, no one else's garden, they don't even know it even exists. Right. And even if you wanted to find it, it would be really hard to find it. Some have always been totally fascinated by that idea.
00:23:40
Speaker
But I guess it's linked to ADHD, right? You know, because it's like in my world, you know, all for me, I don't I could shut the world out. Don't have to feel weird anymore. You know, I set the rules in here. Mm hmm. Yeah, right. Yeah. No, that makes complete sense to me because it because it gives, you know, that whole weird thing, right? I thought I because because because as human beings, we're all
00:24:09
Speaker
wired up to be sociable, right? Because we're a sociable animal, right? So if you're weird and if you're just weird on your own, that's an isolating thing, right? You know, that's where you kind of get, you know, where you kind of feel like an alien. You don't really belong. It can be a very sort of lonely place unless you find your own
00:24:35
Speaker
find your own tribe of weird friends. Yeah, if you're lucky. Right. Because it's so coincidental, isn't it? You know, well, you could just go to school, you could rock up at school one year, and you might be the only freaking ADHD or autistic person in the whole year. You know, it's unlikely, unlikely, but
00:24:59
Speaker
Right. I mean, because thankfully the older you get, the easier it is to spot your fellow weirdos, right? And then you kind of hang out with them and then you've kind of got a sense of, you know, that you belong and then, you know, your weirdness isn't quite so weird after all.
00:25:23
Speaker
Probably, I guess also when you're a kid, your sensitivity is really, really high, right? You've got less stuff to think about. It's only when you go through school and you get conformed into, you know, and you have to like mask and everything, the sensitivity gets like kicked out of you. Slowly but surely. I think it all depends on your parents. If your parents are like... Right, if they nurture it.
00:25:51
Speaker
If they're weird and they're happy to be weird in their own weirdness, then you're going to be secured to be your own little weird self. Whereas if they're not, and they're kind of getting, who's my weird son or mine's my weird son, which I think I definitely was the weird
00:26:15
Speaker
one of us to, you know, then it becomes much more, you know, much more, much harder because you have to kind of mask, you know, you learn to mask like really early.
00:26:31
Speaker
Yeah. And then you take that into school. Yeah. You know, I think quite often the only time that I felt freedom is like between, between school and, uh, home, you know, on my bike, you know, that was like where my freedom was. You know, it's like, it is like, it was like free space where I didn't feel like I had to conform to anyone. Just to love cycling. I used to cycle everywhere.
00:27:02
Speaker
weirdo.
00:27:03
Speaker
Weirdo. Yeah, exactly. So what else have I got? So yeah, secret space obsession. I had this idea that I was just really, really, really good at hiding. You know, playing hide and seek. And I could scroll away for hours and then people would give up because they weren't that obsessed with actually being good at finding or as good as I was, as obsessed as I was at hiding. And I guess they just went off to lunch.
00:27:33
Speaker
You know, whatever, you know, God, okay. Let's just, let's get ham and cheese sandwich. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. And then what else have I got here? I've got, um, obsession with horizontal stripes. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think I've ever owned vertical stripes on with clothes.
00:28:03
Speaker
All right. Don't think so. I don't think so. Just the idea upsets me a little bit. Wait. So you're, so are you, you're for horizontal stripes? Oh no, depends how big they are. If they're big stripes, wide stripes, they have to be horizontal. If they're like pinstripe, they can be vertical. I'll give you, I'm allowing that instance. All right.
00:28:29
Speaker
All right. Yeah. Fair enough. Kind of a fat, fat vertical stripe. I don't know. No, that's a no for you. It's a no, it's a no. But I think you said that to me. No, I thought, or is it you once said to me years ago, yeah, it was you. It was you. You said that I had an obsession with, with blue stripes. You did say that to me once. Well, all right. Then look at me being observant. Yeah, exactly.
00:29:00
Speaker
Look at you taking an interest in my fashion.
00:29:03
Speaker
Mm-hmm. That's very nice of you. You know, I almost think of myself that I was going around pointing other people's weirdnesses out. Right. I mean, I don't think I was, but maybe I was. Yeah. Yeah. I was going around going, this is your weird thing. Yeah. This is your weird thing. You and your old socks and your fish, your fishnet tank top.
00:29:33
Speaker
Yeah. Odd socks. Yeah. As I say, I go on thickness. Yeah. But you always said to me that you went on texture.
00:29:45
Speaker
All right. Yeah, but it's the same. That's funny, too. That will do as well. I know. So what have you got, Martin? You got anything in your little bag there of weirdness? You know what? Well, yeah, I mean, there was, as I said, there was always that I always think of like the things that come to mind are the socially unacceptable things that I kind of feel bad about. Right. Those are the ones that kind of pop up.
00:30:14
Speaker
first because those, you know, because, you know, when you're young or, you know, you're trying to fit in, right? So, and then you get embarrassed when you do something that is socially weird and everyone takes the piss out of your school and, you know, and you think, Oh God, I just want to be normal. Why can't I be normal? So those things are the ones that tend to
00:30:40
Speaker
pop up in my own, in my own head. Like for a while, I decided that I would walk from school to home with my Parker coat, my big Parker coat with, with the hood in the middle of summer and I would zip the whole thing up. So you just had that little, you could just see that little hoodie bit all the way home. What's the animation to park?
00:31:11
Speaker
South, South Park. I was like, I was like a permanent Kenny from South Park in the summer. I just thought, Oh, I'll just do that. I'll just do that for a while. Cool. She did.
00:31:26
Speaker
I did something similar once because I accumulated lots of jumpers and coats at the school. And the caretaker at the end of the summer would always say, if anyone leaves anything here, it will be thrown away. But I'd accumulated about five coats and a couple of jumpers. So I had to wear them all coming home.
00:31:54
Speaker
So it'd be July, three, four coats, couple of jumpers, sweating, like God knows what. And I think I had a bag and the bag was already really full of other stuff. Cause I'll just tend to accumulate things. What I didn't initially accumulate. I just forgot stuff.
00:32:15
Speaker
Right. Yeah. So go home, you know, different days and think, Oh, I left my coat at school. So going to school the next day was a different coat. I probably left that one at school as well.
00:32:28
Speaker
And dear. Yeah. And T looks like some crazy person on the way home. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Oh, boy. So I've got here my little bag. I've got always in a hurry. Like, I just, I've always had this thing, I've always walking really fast. Apart from the fact that it's really common, I hate walking behind people. Right.
00:32:54
Speaker
and I'll swerve around them. I mean, no hurry at all, but I can't walk behind people.
00:33:01
Speaker
It stresses you out. You get anxiety. Yeah, exactly. But once, the first time I went to Cuba, I was on my own. And I was walking along and I was just passing under this cinema in Havana. And this guy called from above, he was doing some work on the electrics, on the lights, from above.
00:33:26
Speaker
Hello, my friend, where are you going? And I looked up and I said, oh, hello. And he came down and he says, I have never seen anyone walking as fast as you. And I was on holiday. I was in the Caribbean.
00:33:43
Speaker
Right. I was running around like I was here. I should be chilling. Chilling at full speed. Yeah, exactly. And he was really funny because he'd learned all of his English. He'd learned through Brian Adams albums.
