| First I want to say that I know that people with Aspergers vary in their skills when it comes to forming friendships, and in no way am I suggesting that my condition is precluding me from doing better when it comes to doing that. But every now and then, it occurs to me that I really don't have "... |

| The only real difference used to be the language delay. I can't imagine that making too much of a difference between logic and creativity. |

| In the new DSM, for ASD, it says that those with an established diagnosis of AS should be diagnosed with ASD. So you are still considered autistic. I actually prefer it this new way, because I think the perception of Aspergers has been turned to crap from the media, and idiots going around self-diag... |

The former is used when an individual is not trying to improve, while the latter is used to make the individual feel a little less bad about themselves, and ... |

This ensures the instruments sound well together. Timing and rhythm should also be consistent among instruments and consistent with ea... |

| You just used your same logic again. You think because you've read similar arguments elsewhere, it must be me arguing. Or, better yet, I stole those arguments. You can't possibly think that two people came up with the same argument. Thank you for demonstrating your faulty logic yet again. You keep s... |

| I haven't read the book, but I've seen the movie. If you want to say it's better, fine. But not only is BR not an original concept, THG more similar to concepts that came before BR than it is to BR. It's actually kind of insulting to the big historical event that the concept of roman gladiators was,... |

| I think it's because men are expected to act a certain way, so it's more noticeable when they don't. It is more socially acceptable for women to be a little more eccentric, or say off color things, and so NT women know that they can. What's more likely to get your attention: a grown man having a mel... |
