    Standardized Testing as a Special Interest

    Hi all, I'm new here. I wanted to talk about a very "strange" autistic special interest of mine. I do standardized tests (and other tests) in my free time for fun. I especially love the ACT/SAT (American college entrance exams). Something about the structure of it is very enjoyable to me...

    Being forced to go out in a rough town

    Hello, my mom is forcing me to go out, buy things for her, go closer to god, etc. But the area is so bad, I can't describe it, It is the photons of light that hit my eyes, the weird architecture that is considered "good" by them, people who are weird, look at me, children being "satanic" as...

    how do deal with my "normal complex?"

    or whatever you call it :p. I don't feel normal and I hate it. I feel defective. Especially when those advertisements talk about "normal people".

I went to a tiny religious private school for elementary school where I was generally fine, but may have been naive as to how public school worked, and I went to a public middle school where I was able to...

    What's the last weird or unusual thing you've learned?

    Today I learned about a tiny little (and actually quite cute) spider that lives in Australia. It's called the peacock spider, because the male has these very colorful wing-like coverings wrapped around his abdomen, and when he sees a female spider he raises them in a fan-like shape to attract...

    Weird preferences about what I watch?

    I notice I don't like alot of stuff that everyone around me likes. It's hard for me to find stuff to watch these days, and it makes me feel like a stick in the mud.o_O For some reason I can't stand social commentary, satire, or anything political regarding fiction, and I can't laugh at sarcasm...
