      Perhaps someone who is trying to form a connection after spending their youth not completely understanding social conventions…

      It just feels kind of mean to dunk on him this hard for something so minor. He’s not reading Jordan Peterson or anything. It’s obviously someone trying to better themselves…they’re just doing it in a way that makes us cringe.

      Like it’s fine to laugh at the situation but have some empathy, too. They weren’t acting maliciously

      I would not be surprised to learn this person has autism and takes the world in a very literal manner, so even though they need coaching to develop social abilities, reading a book like this is not particularly helpful.
