AITA for constantly mixing up AO3 and AITA?

Shitpost

I (27F) have on five different occasions found myself commenting about something posted on "AO3" (the fanfiction website, for those of you who don't know) when I really mean "AITA" (the popular subreddit). For a little background info, I often accidentally swap words that begin with the same letter, going back to my childhood, and based on this reason a number of TikTok videos have diagnosed me with ADHD. I think the fact that AITA and AO3 contain roughly the same amount of fanfiction also contributes to my repeated typo.

Full disclosure, I don't think I'm the asshole, nothing anyone says will ever make me think I'm the asshole, and no one has actually called me the asshole, but I do brace mself every time it happens because I expect my phone to start blowing up. So, reddit, AO3?

We don't have enough evidence to say you don't have ADHD.

Your experience as neurotypical is not enough to diagnose anyone as neurotypical.

OP you don't get to tell us you have any condition, we have to internet diagnose you from a few vague comments

NTA, but I probably am for writing fanfic on AO3. I have a big crush on David Tennant and have written a 75 chapter unfinished opus containing all of his popular characters. Right now the Tenth Doctor is jealous because Crowley's a redhead and Kilgrave just started controlling Alec Hardy and is making him commit murders rather than solve them. I'm not sure how to fit Scrooge McDuck into all of this. (And I hope if I ever had a mind to actually write something like this, that my laptop would break and I'd be cursed to never be able to use a computer again. No crush on Tennant, either. I just seem to like a lot of the things he's in.)

Damn, it's a joke. I was kind of making fun of that Wangxian fanfic that broke the tagging system and crossed over with several other fandoms. No need to come into my chat threatening physical harm. I do have an account over there and I do read and write fanfic on occasion -- Good Omens, Doctor Who, Babylon 5, Harry Potter (before I really started hating JKR), MCU.
