That is what I have found, just by the reaction when I don't recognise a joke. Well, apparently a joke, anyway.
Also, I was ACCUSED of being a literal person not long ago. The weird thing is, this person's own nephew has aspergers and knows I have it too, but still reacts with disgust, because I failed to get the joke.
Ok, so my husband, who does not have aspergers, teases me, by deliberately taking me literally and yes, that is frustrating, but that is because he is not being serious.
I guess the reality is, it is annoying when one is faced with a literal thinker. And I suppose why it is a surprise to find I am not as stupid as I come across.
Received a lovely compliment not long ago. Told that I am a very logical person.
