My god, this is ACTUALLY corresponding to my controversial Nazi/Cure pic on deviantart. OO;;
The good news is, nothing rhymes with orange.

I love it!   Though I suppose people might assume it's a boycott relating to the treatment of migrant orange pickers.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure blue is the adjacent color of orange, not green.
Autism speaks won't let any of our stories be published, it goes against what they think. And I think somewhere I read their board of directors has not a single Aspie on it, but made up of NTs and parents of Aspies, if this was as good as it sounds i'd be great, anyone's money form here would bet that each parent of an aspie sees Autism as a disease.

Why not go with green anyways? It fits with my analogy of what autism is/does: Neurotypical + Autism = Myself

In a way Autism still gets a blue color.
Flardox, that made me laugh.

It angers me that they're basically stealing our idea and changing it so that it works for them. I mean, the wrist band thing isn't something I would have done, but the fact that they're just... taking it from us TICKS ME OFF.
Shhhh....don't tell Autism Speaks we talk! Then their whole plan will be destroyed!
I got an idea!

Blood colored!

This is getting out of hand. Despite the disclaimer in your signature, people coming to this site and seeing your comments will think that we're all militant extremists.

I know that your not serious, but it doesn't really matter - autistic rights is a PR campaign, after all.

Besides which, do you really want your only role here to be the sites resident joke?

Sorry about that, EvilZakkie.  I got a bit carried away.

Not a problem - just try to tone it down a few notches...

Sure thing, EvilZakkie!

And I was thinking of doing something along the lines of "And now, the latest press release from Autism speaks" - a big headline in red or orange on a dark background and then a picture of a large pile of dog poo underneath with steam rising off it. I don't know if they would sue over that, though.


no.
comes under parody, and as they are public figures, if they DO try to sue you, you can counter-sue Wink
