    Peppers survey!

    My favorite peppers are whatever peppers are used in The Pepper Plant, which is my favorite hot sauce. The Pepper Plant is produced in Gilroy, CA, which is primarily known for producing garlic. I would gander to say it's the fresh garlic that gives The Pepper Plant a taste that cannot be...

    Did I Mess Up?

    Orion doesn't seem to understand that you are doing him a favor by offering to pay him professional wages for amateur work. His visit is supposed to be a chance to earn money while doing house repairs, not visit with his girlfriend. It sounds like Orion and his girlfriend have an unhealthy...

    Super Mario Kart Video

    I miss this game. I have thought about it quite a bit recently. If only I could locate the super nintendo I played growing up.

    How Open Should I Be About My Asperger’s?

    Keep it to yourself and try to improve your social skills. That is your best option. The previous posters were both spot on. You cannot control how other people react. Sadly, many will react negatively as soon as they hear the word autism. What you can control is yourself. Use the knowledge you...

    Just found out Im Aspergers , like my son

    Welcome Carrie! I also have four children. Two have been diagnosed; the youngest will likely receive a diagnosis when he is old enough.

    I was let go by my fulltime job and I don't know what to do.

    I am 32 and still working my way through college. I am in my first year of a three year Master's program. I finished my Bachelor's degree a couple years ago at the age of 30. It's not too late to go to school. I remember trying to find a job when I hadn't completed my degree. It's nearly...

    Ill-advised reasons to learn a language other than English

    Being more attractive is actually my favorite perk. My gf loves it when I start speaking French to her.

    Getting back into shape after anorexia

    ROCK CLIMBING IS THE BEST!! My only piece of advice is to climb because you love it. I’ve been climbing for a year now and I’m just now getting into the intermediate boulder routes. But I still love climbing every single time I go. I can have an absolute failure of day, not be able to send...

    Do you consider your Asperger's a blessing, curse or indifferent.

    I have known about my AS for about as long as you have. Most stay I consider it an obstacle to overcome, so basically a curse. But then I remember the ways in which I am gifted. There are some things that NTs struggle with that I find easy. If I put AS on a balance it would probably lean more...

    Bacon Donuts

    Considering that I had two more donuts after the bacon donuts, I would say I had enough to constitute a meal. I had the donuts in lieu of dinner and wasn’t hungry when I went to bed. Bacon donuts for the win!!

    Bacon Donuts

    Does eating a donut with bacon on top count as a meal? Would eating two of them make a difference?

    Love

    I consider finding a partner to be very important. I have tried recently to make finding a partner less of a priority, but no matter what I do it is something I really want. Something that has helped me is focusing on making friends. This helps me keep my expectations in check and has given me a...
