“in the Real World people won’t let you wear headphones or earplugs!”
yes they fucking will nobody gives a shit if you’re wearing earplugs.
“in the Real World you’ll never have a silent place to work!”
See point number 1. Also, libraries.
“in the Real World people aren’t going to always accommodate you!”
well maybe not in every life instance but in schools and work environments it’s literally illegal not to provide ADA accommodations so
“in the Real World you’re going to have to work with people you don’t know!”
hoooooo let me tell you right now that professional collaboration and bullshit school group projects don’t even sort of function the same way
“In the Real World you’re just going to have to deal with it!”
well the Real World doesn’t actively keep my personal coping tools away from me so dealing with it isn’t half as hard as dealing with you.
Invoking the real world is treated like some sort of cheat code, something you can say whenever the level’s too hard to win easy.
Doesn’t make the real world look very appealing.
