Bob is 28, a farmer. He bears many similarities to your sister, but I don’t think he’s on the ASD spectrum. I think that he is more likely a man who had a difficult upbringing, has been beaten down by life, and carries around a lot of hostility, for reasons not germane to this thread.

Although like your sister, he’s a giant nerd.
