    Do Aspies feel expressions on their face?

    This weekend I got a new computer desk and chair as a sort of late Christmas present, because my mom said we should until the snow and ice was gone before lugging it upstairs to my apartment. I had to really make sure I looked and acted very pleased and grateful for the gifts, because I knew my...

    Changelings and autism

    This must be why I like mythical creatures so much. Fairies, mermaids, unicorns... But I don't really believe I'm a mythical creature. They're called mythical for a reason.

    Finding / seeing faces in things?

    Quite a few Disney and Pixar movies are really based off of this.

    Buying things you don’t need

    I misread sugar scrubs as sugar cubes, and I thought, "Maybe she needs them for tea or coffee or whatever". It didn't sound like much, compared to sugar scrubs, anyway.

    Do Aspies annoy other Aspies?

    Wow. I have virtually zero interest in gossip. Especially celebrity and political gossip. I thought it might be an aspie thing, but maybe not.

    Post a Crazy or Funny News Story

    You'd think a group of naked people would be easy to find.

    What do you wish your parents had done differently?

    It's someone who is always saying nasty and hurtful things to you, like "You're ugly/fat/stupid/lazy/weird/evil/worthless, and you should just go kys". They might not physically hurt you, but in a way the emotional pain is even worse because it's on the inside.

    Autistic Positives

    I think it's what made me so resistant to peer pressure as a teen. Other kids were always smoking but I never smoked. Unless it was second hand coming from from them and adults. Which I hated.

    Why are we stupid enough to trust people then they hurt us?

    Who says I trust anyone? There's so much crap in the world now I need to wear waders.

    Why didn't the lifeguard rescue the hippie? Because he was too far out, maaan!

    I Think The Worst Part Of Being On The Spectrum Is...

    Being bullied for having unusual or intense interests even, if they are harmless. Being forced into living conditions that are not good for people with sensory issues or a need for privacy and peace and predictability. Being scolded or even punished for not acting NT or "normal". People not...

    Share good puns and jokes.

    Why was the Easter Bunny so upset? Because he was having a bad HARE day.

    Is it cinnamon, or lead?

    I guess if you get sick these days, it really was "just something you ate". Unless you have a cold, because you're supposed to feed it, or something. But seriously, it looks like there is nothing left in the world that's safe to eat. Everything will poison and kill us in some way no matter how...

    Empathy for non-living things

    I'm not usually that attached to non-living objects unless they look like living things, like toy figures and stuffed animals or something like that. I've had to get my washer and dryer replaced I don't know how many times and that's all that they are to me, something to wash and dry my clothes...
