| Given that the original posts in question have been edited, I can not speak to what was said previously. However, it is important for both KoS and MsT (among others) to understand that WP is a support site; that does not make it the sole domain of those on the spectrum, nor an acceptable place to d... |

| Message to KoS: While you may be allowed to read and post in this thread, you might want to think a little more carefully before you post. Your blanket statements with all caps about aspies demanding this and that, and the sense of entitlement, are not only wrong, but also inflammatory. Your opinion... |

| Last night a witty neighbor was visiting for a few minutes, and he referred to something as being "honky-dory". I laughed and told him it was "hunky", not honky.

You wanted aspie advice, so here's mine: You excel at a lot of subjects, so stop worrying about areas where you are weaker. I know aspies tend to worry obsessively, so that can be easy to say, ... |
