"Its easier to explain on the phone. Can you call me?"
whenever someone does this, I often say sure but you're still gonna need to send me written instructions

Real
Linked with ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, etc., and surprisingly common
The very first time my mind just goes nahh i will just ask them to repeat, lol.
