Title: anyone watch that aspie program on bbc3 the other day?
Post by: Adam on August 14, 2009, 05:23:29 PM
the blonde kid in it was exactly how i was when i was his age  :P except i was never violent towards people

the other two were more outgoing though. a lot of aspies seem to be like that when you see them on tv. are most aspies like that? i'm more like the blonde kid, even now. i couldn't really relate to the other two at all.

Yeah I saw it - the blonde kid was the one I could least relate too, there was a little of myself in the older kids but not much. We are all pretty different I guess...

Wish we could get it here I will have to check if they put it on any of the ones we do.  It's weird all kids of people can order special programing in there language here but I can't order extra stuff in English from Europe

All you need is a UK proxy server and you can get all our programs.

We don't get these kinds of programmes in Australia. So if someone could record the one Soph mentioned and put it on Youtube, it would be appreciated. :P

I am wondering if the programme was called "The Autistic Me"? Because I found something on YouTube about it.

Yep, UK only.


I've tried to watch Top Gear on there, very disappointing it's UK only. The best I can get is 10 minute youtube clips.

There's a continuation program to this called 'The Autistic Me - One Year On'.  Watching it now.  The one with the gf just got her age wrong on her birthday card  :lol:

For people in the UK here's the link to iPlayer:

It was OK - I got the impression that Alex at least had Munchausen's by proxy, looking at his mother....

Yeah I didn't like his mother much either.  She seemed really selfish.

The Valentine's Day dinner at the end was the most excruciatingly awkward thing I've ever seen :P

I've always dreaded the thought of being in a relationship around that time and being expected to react enthusiastically to cheesy, gimmicky, stereotypical "romantic" behavior. :sick:

It wasn't that.  It just looked like they weren't very comfortable with each other and had not much to say.  Not to mention the fumbled kiss.  I was cringing throughout the entire thing  :laugh:

If I ever go on a date, it will probably be cringe-worthy like that too! :laugh:

Education TV shows on Aspergers is a double edge.
It educates the people but than stupid disease-wanting-emo-whores watch it and than think they have it.
Also Disease-whore-parents who want o have an excuse for their bratty kids.

Than all the wind-song-bleeding-hearts call aspies "indigo children" than before you know it everyone wants to have Aspergers and than the people who actually have it get all self-righteous and compare their under achieving pokemon-obsessed lives to the genius of Einstein

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's annoying
