    What book would make a great movie?

    I think the Dark Tower Series by Stephen King. It would be such a hard task to undertake though without it seeming cheesy. There are is a lot of imagery in the series that works for reading, but would be hard to translate to big screen. That being said though, I wholeheartedly think Christopher...

    Any Matthew Mcconaughey Fans?

    I wasn't into him before recently, didn't think he was a bad actor, just not my cup of tea. Then I saw Interstellar and had my mind blown. I saw that movie 4 times in theaters and numerous times at home. Oddly, when I need motivation to study I watch a scene from that movie and think to myself...

    Did anyone see the new Poltergeist? (Contains Spoilers)

    I personally thought the new one was utter crap. I loved the original because there was build up before the crazy stuff started happening. The family even started having fun with the ghosts. The new one just goes straight to creepy clown running around the room and they couldn't even do that...

    Any Microsoft Employees?

    I am on my senior year of college getting ready to graduate with a degree in math (not teaching option) and Microsoft requested my resume. I was wondering if anyone here has, or does, work for them. If you are someone who has what are your thoughts of the company?

    Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

    I have read up on EMDR therapy online because my Psychologist brought it up in passing today. I was wondering if anyone has had personal experience with this and if so, what are your thoughts on the effectiveness. EMDR link

    Do You Believe In God?

    I think that there is too much evidence against the existence of the Biblical God. I do not like it because of how they classify women and gay people (a few to name off the top of my head). I tend to agree with you, I think Asperger's allows us to see through the inconsistencies and weight the...

    Nail biting?

    I have always done this, I incessantly attack my nails all the time, along with the skin around them. Has anyone had any success with stopping this? I just chalked it up to "it is what it is" and stopped trying. It probably bothers people more who are around me than it actually bothers me lol...

    Processing Emotions

    That is a really good idea Val. I had been considering doing that but for some reason (excuse) or another I don't. I really should start doing this because the very few times I have actually done this, the letters are received with a lot of love and welcome. It is so frustrating at times because...

    I made Progress :/

    I would pursue a professional diagnosis. There is a massive dimension these quizzes don't go into. For example, a professional diagnosis will tell you how your brain processes information. This can be massively helpful, especially in the schooling environment. Every person will have a different...

    Processing Emotions

    I wanted to see if other processed emotions relatively similar to how I process them. At night, after my wife and son have gone to bed, I usually stay up for a while and think about the day and let my mind cool down. Typically throughout the day I do not elicit emotions internally, however, at...

    Who Hates Math?

    I hated math in high school as well (I am presuming you are in high school due to referencing junior high), however, as I got older I fell in love with it and am now doing just fine in the Calculus series. If you are ever interested in talking, I would be more than happy to help you out, maybe...

    Talking to yourself?

    I love talking to myself and have always done it lol. Prior to diagnosis I never told anyone because I felt crazy, now I have an excuse so it's in the open :). I'm a pretty interesting guy, so why not talk to myself!!!
