| The world was designed by normal people for normal people. It is not going to be redesigned because mercury has caused brain damage in a small percentage of the population. The solution is to cure the brain damage and prevent it from happening again. Someone claimed they had no vaccinations and wan... |

What really constitutes an obsession anyway? I've never figured this out, though apparently I had an odd obsession with scientific things when I was young. Oh well, going on what I presume you mean:
Computers
Gaming
Warhammer
Music
People...? I just find it interesting to look at people... |

| Does anyone else have problems with this? I like to just do things my own way, get along with them myself and show the end product to people if they need to see it. I'm a lot like this with schoolwork. If a teacher asks me to explain what I'm doing for an essay or projects, I'll lock up and find it ... |

| Just go and don't worry about it. Things are usually better once you get there, though I do quite despise going places unless I have someone I know to follow around. |

Apparently my sense of 'omgomgomgawesome' gets me labelled as having odd fashion sense. Though recently this has been reduced somewhat by the fact that I really like the 'military' style jackets that are in style now...
I can't abide half of these ridiculous stripy tops though. |

| All this talk of self diagnosis and fake aspies makes me wonder about myself. Once I got some kind of dignosis, I was almost actively against the idea - especially when the subject of help and stuff came up as I generally don't find schoolwork any more difficult than anyone else (I presume.

| Horror movies don't bother me that much, unless they're so gory or feature such horrific visual effects or themes that they make me feel physically ill... Games are better for me. Even if they're not technically horror games, they can still scare me. Quake II for example features some horrifying sou... |
