I personally liked the end, but (in my opinion) the beginning is a gross generalization that is only partially true of me, as I don't steal or intentionally disobey authority or bully ANYONE or anything like that and am not a jock or all that popular, but I am not naive, act kind of tough and can defend myself (verbally and physically) if necessary, dress well, don't get offended easily by bullies, girls like me, and I come off as kinda "edgyish" and play electric guitar. I also unknowingly tick off teachers by saying the wrong thing or acting on my (terrible) adhd. The video, while well-meaning, just promotes and encourages stereotyping.
Then again, I am a very minor aspie who is really much more adhd (I am kind of a "biological aspie" in that I biologically have it, had it bad when I was younger, and exhibit a few symptoms, but if I were tested right now I wouldn't pass.) What do you think?
