When people write a statement and then tack on a question mark they force people to guess what they mean. Is it a typo? Is it an observation and the question mark is supposed to somehow signal disapproval? Or is it an actual question, with a little grammar error that's not uncommon for non-native English speakers?

Maybe this is just me being weird but I simply don't understand why people think a question mark means ", and that's stupid for obvious reasons that I can't be bothered to spell out and therefore I disapprove".

Admittedly my reply was even worse so yeah, pot, kettle.

Its not really Origami when its folded from several papers? Its then papercraft or modelbuilding.. Origami is the art of folding it from one sheet.

Are you autistic?

I don't understand why you were downvoted, it's a fair question given the context. I don't think I'm autistic, or if I am, it's only slightly. Clearly in this here case my reactions resemble those of someone with autism, and in hindsight I recognize that. So I'll take your question as constructive feedback and try to be less dismissive in the future.
