An Aspie is standing in a room full of about two dozen NT's.
The NT's are all mulling about chatting, while the Aspie keeps to himself; mostly just staring downward.
Suddenly and inexplicably the NT's all spontaneously start hopping up and down while saying (in silly high-pitched voices) "Pancakes! Pancakes!".
The Aspie is confounded by this behavior; but being desperately lonely, and always wishing to be a part of things (contrary to common NT belief) thinks: "well, this doesn't appear difficult; even looks sort of fun."
So the Aspie joins in, hopping up and down saying "Pancakes! Pancakes!" in a silly voice.
At that instant: the NT's all suddenly stop, and all of their eyes immediately fall upon the Aspie (who immediately stops as well).
The NT's just stand there, staring at the Aspie as though the latter were insane.
Feeling awkward and embarrassed: the Aspie leaves the room.
I can totally relate to this situation...plus, like the Aspie in this joke I don't understand the pancakes joke either...what's it about?
