Hijack this thread. The keys are in it and the motor running. I'm curious to see where it might go. Take it and run with it
And since I got a chance to ask... can anyone help me find a thread that was here some weeks ago mentioning a man who used to be a spokesman for curbies but has now seen the error of his ways and says he was wrong? I think the thread mentioning him linked to an article with his story. I can't find it again.
Do you get the feeling there is getting to be a sort of... classist thing going on in the austistic community, much like any other community? Example, LFA vs HFA, or Officially Diagnosed vs Self Diagnosed?
I thought surely by now people would be talking about grammar, cheese and which areas they shave. Ah well.
OOH... got one!
What is everyone's favorite things about being an Aspie!?!
I like being honest, reliable, organized, accurate, having a high level of attention to detail and a good knowledge of facts & figures about work or interests. Most of all though, I treasure being logical. I feel sorry for some NTs who seem to be lost in a sea of emotions tossing them about. My sister's life seems to be constant drama. ick
The main thing I learned about the art of conversation (which isn't much) is that FOOD is always a popular and safe topic
Fruit loops.
I heard about a man, one "Mr. Andersen" who wrote an article in a magazine about how to create fictional worlds, a proccess called "world building" and often refered to as "playing god".
Someone wrote to the magazine. Their letter went as follows:
"Dear Mr. Andesen,
That is not how I do it.
Sincerely,
God."
LOL, I think its called "Sims"

I live by paper plates. Being single now, I can usually live with nothing but 1 cup, a knife and a spoon
DUDE! I am exactly like that! I'm all logical, organized, detailed, etc. and I also have a cup, a knife, a spoon... and a FORK, too. And my paper plates are nothing more than pieces of newspaper and junk mail. Way to go, Silky and her Spockiness. 
Silky and her Spockiness.
Yay! That's one of the best compliments I ever got. Thanks
