Take a noun like House and make a sentence converting it into a verb adverb preposition or adjective:

House (n)

We housed the refugees in temporary accomodation

Team (n)

Place was teeming with spectators

Then suggest a new word for next poster. Homophones are acceptable as are contractions or expansions of words for example Reaper (n) can become reap (v) or flight can become flighty or flightless

We can either try to "fit in" with the rest of society, or we can be so egocentric that we can't be bothered.
I choose the actor. I observe NT's. I listen to their socializing. I practice it, so in social situations I can just emulate/mimic what is expected.
It isn't natural for me, but it enables me to "fit in".
It is VERY tiring and draining, but at least we can appear like them even though it is an act. Like being on the stage.
They can't see it is emulation, and so we are accepted.
