I dont mind the SAT a bit, the old one anyhow. I feel orry for the first class that gets hit with the new one... but at least on the old one I think AS might have helped me some. I got an 800 verbal, 740 math. Come to think of it, the new one is supposed to focus even more on english, so aspies should have an even bigger boost over the rest of humanity!

Someone quoted by Catffienated Wrote:
those who suffer nothing more than AS are whiny bitches if they think they have real problems, because their problems are no different than those that other people suffer.
I find this SUCH an amusing sentence.
So if our problems are "no different than those that other people suffer", this person used it to "prove" that our problems were "not real"? LOL I do wonder how well she gets on with people in general, since according to this logic, all people's problems are "not real" :lol:

I hate the Bush administration.
I hate people who twist, misrepresent, and outright manufacture science to suit their needs. The Bush administration is one of the chief offenders, along with some pro-life groups and a great many industrial corporations.
dont even get me STARTED on creationism.
Not that i have so much of a bone with creationism in general, just the creationists who try to manufacture scientifc support for their beliefs.
But mainly the Bush administration. The stuff they pull makes me want to hit something.
Using the national cancer institute to disseminate the claim that abortions cause breast cancer, for example. Quite false. But they put it about anyway, because true SCIENCE means nothing to these people.
Im making a silly putty effigy and repeatedly defacing it with my pocketknife.
That feels better.

Could Blair and Bush be "cured" of lying if they were made to wear a device which gave them a sub-lethal electric shock each time they failed to tell the truth?

I suspect that teh shocks would come at such frequesncy that they might interfere constructively and produce a powerful enough shock to kill them.

Problem? I didnt use the word problem. I was thinking more along the lines of 'creative problem management'

ratrex, I had a similar problem, I seem to have solved using tylenol PM.
I take it around 11:00 and I'm out by 12:30, so I can get up at 8:00 and not miss classes
Of course if you try that you should not exceed the recommended dosages, since too much acetominophen will turn your liver into a brick.

I suffer from just this problem. Because I can speak and write well.

Timelord the cutoff for the whole LFA/HFA thing is an IQ of 70, not 90. But whatever.

It would be cool to have a summary of all this from a neutral perspective, cuz some people seem to be all over the place after having been away for some few days.

Had a bad day at school.
The first two lessons was math, it was easy because it was repetition of logarithms. I did tasks fast and saw that I got all the answers correct. Alittle boost of self esteem.
However, the next two lessons was gymnastics, and we were to learn to dance. It seems like I've total lack of mirror neurons as I simply could't synchronize what the teacher was doing while seeing all the other students doing it almost perfectly. I simply couldn't keep up, I've had similar problems before, and chose to gently and quitely leave the class even though I didn't get a chance to tell the teacher. I don't want to expose me to the unnecessary stress of such lessons because of self-respect.
In the recess my history teacher came by. I happen to met her before I got her as a teacher in meetings for youths with autism, she is however a parent, and happen to also seem to be eager to get me into uncomfortable social situations.
Anyway, she commented on something I had handed in, I think the questions to the thing I handed in wasn't much to write on, still, it was apparently too short for her, and apparently all the other students had written at least two pages on these two pretty damn precise questions. She said actually said "You have dissappointed me". It isn't easy to explain this human being that I simply have massive motivation problems when it comes to school and she reacted when I said I probably wouldn't hand anything in.
The next lessons was chemistry, which I'm usually pretty good at, but because I was so furious at this teacher I couldn't concentrate, and tried and failed numerous times at the first task on the paper I was given before the teacher told me that I was supposed to begin at another task, which I also had alot of troubles with.
The next lessons was math, but I didn't participate because I had enough of school for this day.
Right now I got a call from my mom where she said "I got a call from your history teacher" and a long preach about why I should do my homework. I DONT NEED IT OK, IT AINT THAT I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY I SHOULD DO HOMEWORK. It probably really is that I'm not challanged enough, like those gifted kids at television, not that I'm very much gifted. This history teacher talks very slowly in class, I don't know if that's what she usually does, but it makes the lessons friggin boring as hell.

Rant about the norwegian forum.
People use so darn many smilies and I just get sick!
And it is such an extreme amount of forums and sub-forums!
And people are allowed to delete their threads!
And they tend to do alot of just that even when there's a huge amount of replies!
And apparently moderators go on big "thread deletion" crusades deleting all old threads.
And people have this tradition of deleting their accounts when they don't want to be on the forum!
... it's hard for me to accept.
