    Proud to be an Aspie?

    (I'm more of a lurker than a poster, but I wanted to answer this question) My autism is integral to who I am. For good and for bad. And I like who I am. So I guess I would say I am proud of it.

    Small talk (Do you hate it?)

    I absolutely hate small talk. And I work in retail, so I have to have the OP's conversation at least one hundred times a day.

    I Don't Get it (NT Need for Emotional Reassurance)

    Your comments and statistics would have comforted me too. Give me rationality and logic any day. Sometimes with NT's I've noticed is that you need to be less blunt with the facts and a little more gentle with their feelings. They tend to be a little more general with things. Like "everything's...

    Strange Things You Eat

    I adore wasabi, but can't handle a ton of it at one time. I also love pizza crusts, and spreading parmesan cheese on pizza. I also love my food cold. (Except for soup, and mashed potatoes) and I'm a huge fan of garlic and cinnamon.

    The last thing that made you cry...

    When my last girlfriend broke up with me via text about a month ago. I seriously thought she was The One. I went over to my friend's house and got drunk and sobbed like a child. The next day while nursing my hangover, I was like "Okay. I cried. I felt bad for myself. It's time to get over it...

    Have you ever been discouraged or critisized for your hobby or interest?

    I taught myself when I was a child. I used to be completely fluent, but now I'm pretty rusty. My best friend and do use it quite often though. Especially in situations where my sensory processing is messed up and I don't understand verbal words. I really should use it more often and get fluent...

    Have you ever been discouraged or critisized for your hobby or interest?

    Yep. My parents just the other day were teasing me for teaching myself German (languages is one of my special interests. I know aside from English; ASL, a lot of Spanish, Japanese and a smattering of Latin and French) and telling me I'd never, ever use it. Well, two days later; I used it to help...

    TV background sound.

    I don't have that issue as much, but I do prefer to use closed captions because I tend to miss a lot. Especially if they have different accents. (I'm American and if something has a British cast, I need to put the captions on) Also I find the tv very distracting. Meaning if anyone is trying to...
