gollark: It's kind of dodecahedral to go around complaining about people not understanding you (and implying it's some failure on their part) and then refusing to try explaining it in better ways.
gollark: > oh the obvious reality is that people dont know what they dont know, and even i didnt conclude that, tho i see it now. doesnt keep me from being impatient and getting madMaybe you should try explaining better if you think you have some great insight people do not understand.
gollark: My family has a pet one, but it actually just mostly sits in a rock thing in its terrarium.
gollark: Geckos are really quite cool reptiles.
gollark: Yep!
