Most people wear skinny jeans, a skinny tee and nice suede shoes, in where I live. They can also wear shorts, singlets and slippers.

I don't like them all - I like a baseball hat, a comfortable T-shirt that's clean, track pants or baggy jeans, hooded sweatshirt when it's cold, and sneakers. Sometimes I feel like to wear a jersey. And to top it off, I prefer crew cuts.

A letter to a good Aspie friend

I know a few autistic people. They are either like A - had bad experiences with autistic people previously - or like B, who are not too used with the idea of an all-HFA group - so I know far more AS people than I could possibly tell you.

But then, I think it's a good idea to keep our group small. Roughly around 6-8 people, all very high-functioning, intellectual and most important of all, have the vision and heart to extend to society, while overcoming our social disability together.

I am hoping that Group C will not include D and E for the time being from the group, until they prove to be far more intellectual and/or show empathy to the wider community. D is too mired in his furry stuff, whereas E had a spotty history of nonchalance and apathy to societal matters, even to his father and even university entry - as what I got to know about him. They can help us in other areas, though.

Of course there're F and G, but I feel that they're poor fits into our new discussion group, based on them based overseas - though they could help us when the chance is right to do employment and/or educational work, which we should preferably not devote all of our time doing. It's not our expertise, leave it to others who can do better.

K has the highest IQ amongst us all. He's a once-in-a-lifetime genius that everybody would love to meet. We have to include him. Meanwhile, you have the social contacts to make our group a success. So long as you two work together, it doesn't matter who works along with you two -

If you two have fundamental disagreements, you could find a mediator who knows both of you two, and is relatively smart and also relatively well connected. Look no further beyond -

Sometimes I feel that any person with the intuitive know-how to fuse intelligence and practicality will help the group.

I hope you'd found that guy - I know autistic people who are like the mediators I know - but have we excluded them, because they look like low-functioning autistic people? Who are we to judge them by their behavior to things?
