    Yes, there seems to be more than enough at that Reddit sub you mentioned.

    I cannot disagree with this statement. Nor with this one. Yeah, I know it's been a while since I posted anything here, and even longer since I posted on WP. But I thought that this event and the comments about it are worth putting my Cr0.02 in. While I kept my account there open, I refused to...

    I need some helpful tips on how to stop snacking out of boredom.

    Thank you. For me, it stems from the fact that I used to engage in repetitive behaviors that others found off-putting. Wear the same clothes every day until they practically fall apart? Now I throw everything into the hamper at the end of the day and they last longer. Dominate conversations...

    Any of you not able to make friends? I know I very rarely make friends.

    I stopped trying to make friends decades ago. Now I just let it happen, and it either does or it doesn't.

    I need some helpful tips on how to stop snacking out of boredom.

    Sure, it takes time; but the key to quitting a habit is not to engage in endless discussions about how to do it. The key to quitting a habit is to simply do it. I mean, how much discussion does a person really need to not do something?

    I need some helpful tips on how to stop snacking out of boredom.

    An addiction is physical. A habit is behavioral. Smoking is an addiction. Snacking is a behavior. You need a chemical substitute to beat smoking -- nicotine patches, for example. You don't need to understand all the psycho-jargon behind a behavior to stop doing it -- you just stop doing it.

    Useful Aspergers Syndrome / Autism Links, Articles and Resources

    I recommend reddit.com/r/autism, as it seems to be more hospitable than another autism website that has recently become hostile toward Israel specifically, and people of Jewish ancestry in general. It also seems better moderated than that other website.

    "How do I stop doing X?" Simple. You just stop doing it.

    High school reunion

    Bullying is as bullying does. The mere fact that some of them may have had traumatic experiences of their own does not absolve them from "acting out" and bullying others. They made their choices, so the onus is entirely on them --not society, not their parents, and certainly not their victims...

    High school reunion

    It surprised me how many "bullies" and "mean girls" have died while engaging in some form of risky behavior. Many more died after engaging in risky behavior, but only after months or years of suffering. Those "Hold my beer and watch this" moments can be just as deadly as gunshots, and engaging...

    Became a "grampa" to five beautiful Persian-Siamese mix kittens! (Mother and babies are doing well, and daddy doesn't know yet.)
