Well, let's hear your
bullshit insights! :autism:
-
I wonder that sometimes as well. Glad I'm not.

I'm not sure how tall you are, but you might have played football.

About... 6 feet and 2 inches.

Yep, football.

I'm not surprised. One of the smallest whale species known averages about 11 feet in length; you'll probably be larger than that after your transformation is complete. Eat a lot of junk food now to prepare your layer of blubber for cold waters. :thumbup:

Your fail goes far beyond your AS

Shit gets stacked high in Tennessee. :book:

I don't think the labels are that clear cut. Everyone's brains are fucked up to some degree to the point where no one is 100% NT, me thinks. :dunno:
I wonder if there really is any major difference, apart from the social problems. I've seen plenty of non-aspies who are obsessive, who stim etc.
-
I know I wouldn't be with my husband or have the baby I have now. I would have taken a different pathway in my life and be with another guy.
-
I think AS is like any other mental illness or disorder (yeah I know it's not a mental illness before anyone jumps down my throat, but it's similar) in that everyone has "symptoms" of it to a greater or lesser degree, it's just when it has a big effect on your life and limits the way you can live your life that it becomes diagnosable
For example everyone gets shy now and then, doesn't mean they have social anxiety disorder
Everyone does little things like checking stuff or counting, doesnt mean they have OCD
Everyone feels sad sometimes, doesn't mean they have depression
and when I say everyone, I guess I mean almost everyone, as I'm sure there are some lucky people who never get shy :P
But yeah, with AS, plenty of NTs get obsessive or misunderstand things or have weird sensory problems. It's when all these symptoms come together and limit your ability to live a normal life that you have aspergers or autism

What Soph said.
I find my HFA to be a disability in many ways so I am not that close to being an NT.
I would probably be a lot smarter and more social. I would have a job like a translator or something like that and travel and meet new people all the time and stuff like that. I would have a lot of fun as a non autistic I think.
-
I'm an NT. I'm still fucked up though :autism:

^Why do you become a member on autism sites? I hope you don't mind me asking. And it is not a criticism, I like you being here.

I met Soph via a different place, had a crush and followed him here :laugh:

I probably would have become another clueless, overweight soccer mom who drives a mini van, gossips non-stop about the neighbors, talks about her "perfect" children, and lies about how "wonderful" her life is compared to everyone else while hiding a quart of vodka under the kitchen sink.
I've had nightmares about that.(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v249/danny0023/smilies/poke-brain-smiley.gif)
Thank heavens for being abnormal. :zoinks:
-
Penty. I think your parents would have been the same. You would look the same. You would have grown up in the same area and you would have different excuses to excuse your actions and general personality.
3 days.

I try not to play the what if game; it would drive me nuts. Honestly I dont know how things would be if I didnt have brain problems. I would probably be more goal oriented I guess. I really dont care. I like myself
But, sometimes I do the "what ifs" with other people. Like what would have happened to Hitler if his father supported him being an artist ? Or, what if Charles Manson had a good mum. Then what ?

Then they wouldn't have been HITLER and MANSON as we know them, I suppose. :chin:
Although they might have been messed up anyway. Maybe they were born off-kilter and would have gone bad even with good nurturing. :dunno:
-
I agree they were probably bad eggs. But i wonder if they wouldn't have gone off the deep end like that, or maybe killed one or 2 people. It's just something I ponder. nature versus nurture.

And after 3 years, I've had enough.

I like to imagine what you would have turned out like if you were normal Bint?

So you're fleeing again?

well im not sure if i got all these loser friends for being aspie in the first place,
but if i had the same "circle of friends" as i do now, its most likely that i'd be trying to sell drugs
-
If I were NT? Ah, the things I'd do with just normal social skills.
-
If I were NT, I probably would have ended up running away with friends and become a criminal.

...and not started to have relationships with pigs? :(

I see you came back. I had actually hoped you had finally discovered a little sense.

:facepalm2:

If I were NT, maybe I would get a job in public relations. Can't really get more social than that can you? I would be organising parties and and stuff like that. As I said before, being NT would probably be a lot of fun.
