My [16F] friends [15-17 M&F] constantly mock me or get irritated when I show up at the time we agreed. They call me a "robot" for not understanding. Am I the problem?

Example:

Random friend over text: Hey, OP. Let's hang out at 6 in my home. Everyone's coming.

I show up at 6:10

Friend: uuuuuhh, why are you here so early????!! I'm not even ready...

This case and other similar cases have happened several time over the years since high school started and they often get irritated that I'm at their place earlier than they expected even though I got pretty much exactly at the time they told everyone to be there.

Months ago I got to my friend's place (the usual hangout spot for our group) at 6:45 because she had texted me something along the lines of "Hey let's watch the Magic vs Rockets game at 7, I told everyone", soooo obsviously I have to get there close to 7 to not miss the game, and she still laughed and joked about how I'm always the first one to get there and she didn't expect people to get there early, since we usually watch games and they play ball outside, and they mostly come for the pickup later.

So it's like ??????!!!!

I get there in time because 1) they told me to get there at that time 2) because I live kind of far away from most of them and have to take a bus or two that take a while 3) because I gotta get back at 10:30 tops and it's kind of ridiculous to get there at 8:30 only to leave so quickly

If I explain this stuff they say I'm a nerd and say I'm weird and call me an aspy robot. It's not that common of a joke but it happens sometimes pretty much only to me because most of the other friends get there later or just ghost everyone and don't show up.

So, wtf? What is the deal with telling people to get there at 7 expecting them to come at 8:30 or whatever? Is this a common thing or are my friends just special that way? Should I just get there later? Seems kind of dumb to travel for 30+ minutes each trip to stay there for two hours when we are suppose to hang out.

anybody has any answers for me?

tl;dr: Friends tell everyone to show at X time, and when I do they call me nerdy and robotic for not getting that they actually expected us to get there 1+ hours later even when we are supposed to be there to watch a game. What should I do?
