Yes theminxx, NTs all have varying rules and norms. It's so hard. I'm starting to think that the only option for us is this: just be honest and direct (like our default Aspie mode) and not care so much when NTs get offended. Obviously don't purposely use bad language or lack of manners (learn NT general social norms, of their versions in how they show respect) and try to remember to apply them. But if you forget or don't manage to work out the expected norm, you can either explain your Aspie symptoms or just explain that you didn't intend to be offensive. If they can't handle that, well f*** them. I've seriously had enough of explaining myself to them, especially to those NTs that should know me better.
