    What Does Reading Facial Expressions Really Mean?

    I can pick up on the obvious ones and sometimes I can pick up an expression based on someones voice tone or inflection sometimes. Some of the slightly more subtle facial expressions take me a bit longer to register though, and I just don't understand what stuff like "eyes lighting up" is even...

    I may had missed up gf's computer :(

    There are usually options to pick that allow you to tell the program not to install any extra software. Have to either go through each window carefully, or pick Custom Install - they sometimes like to hide them there. Clamwin itself seems to be legit. Personally, I like to use Microsoft...

    What has been seen, cannot be unseen ?

    Pretty much any sort of excessive gore - severed limbs, innards, decapitation, etc. Makes me nauseous for days.

    Indeed. I'm now on my third therapist for it, though now it's with the knowledge that I have Asperger's.

    Video games you're playing?

    I've been playing a lot of Minecraft on the PC with the Tekkit mod pack. I also dabble in Titanfall every now and then (also on PC).

    what is your stim?

    Oh okay, I get it. Thanks! I often twist the seams of my shirts and pants in between my fingers. I hate doing it because it's ended up ruining clothes but I can't stop myself. I also crack my knuckles and bounce my legs a lot.
