Supposedly, according to semi-professional psychologist, I'm mildly autistic.
Wow. Now I'll fit in around here even more.

You know what they say about guys with mild autism.
No, seriously, what do they say about guys with mild autism?

You can't throw a rock without hitting someone with mild autism. It doesn't make you special, you damn freak.

Hey, so am I! Welcome to the club, Zeta.
I didn't need a professional to tell me that I were autistic though. Me and my mother pretty much figured it by ourself.

Still in the Minor League, perhaps?

The Ritalin he gives you will either make you all mellow or it will make your skin melt, your colon implode, and your ruins become a quivering mass of gelatinous goop.

I hear some autistics are excellent artists.

I think the cons of being partially to completely unable to perform meaningful communication with other human beings overrides any possible advantages autism might have, and I'm saying that through personal experience.

I have the same problem, but it's because I'm a gigantic nerd more than anything.

Not to demean anyone, but a shit load of these self-diagnosed 'autistics' are just people who hide behind a made-up disease as an excuse to not have to deal with people. They're psychological hypochondriacs.
That being said, who wants candy?

The most popular self-diagnosis these days is Asperger's. I hate it when people pretend they're sick to get attention, but I <i>especially</i> hate it when they give themselves autism. Why don't they just slap my brother in the face instead?

Kid: I like video games.
Doctor: YOU HAVE AUTISM
Kid: :O
And that's how the world works.

Pretty much.
Is ADD/ADHD still as big as it was about three years ago? I remember when every other kid in elementary/middle school was getting Ritalin thrown at them.

I considered faking ADD and selling my Ritalin on the streets for massive profits. Then I realized how retarded the idea sounded after telling it to a friend.
