    I NEED HELP WITH HIGH SCHOOL

    Does anyone agree with that? I understand computers very well (as I attempted to find a prime with 80 million digits in it), but what I believe Violet is referring to is a virtual machine. Is that right?

    I NEED HELP WITH HIGH SCHOOL

    Thanks for your advice, especially you Violet. It is very true that the academic system is suited for one and only one personality. But still, how is it possible for me to know all the powers of 2 for memory up to 2^115= 41538374868278621028243970633760768, and still struggle in school...

    I NEED HELP WITH HIGH SCHOOL

    Hey guys. I am a freshman in high school in my 3rd semester and I need a LOT of advice. Part of my Aspergers is only wanting to do things I like. Why is this an issue? I do not like to study anything I find boring, which I have to do a lot of at the moment. Because I do not like it, I just...

    Don’t interrupt a conversation while people are talking. It’s an important one.

    Does that explain why I’ve never personally met another train enthusiast?

    Rule 52 is don’t interrupt a conversation when people are talking. It is the fifty-second thing I’ve remember leanring. Note that I am a savant, and hyperthimesic as well, so I can do this. I never heard of rules of the internet until now.

    Ok but how am I gonna find a friend or girlfriend? People have told me in the past to find common interests, but I don’t know even ONE person who likes trains to the extent I do.

    Hey guys. Recently I watched the show Atypical, about Sam, who has Aspergers as well, trying to get a girlfriend. There is one scene where the popular kids are hanging out and Sam notices that the popular girl kissed 2 different boys on consecutive days. He then says a lot of things I would have...
