| I'm skeptical. I have the right to be regarding the guy. Now maybe what he means by curing himself (it's in another one of his videos) is getting rid of alot of traits. I just don't like scammers and naturally go on defense when it comes to those seeking a profit. Also Amanda Baggs can SING?? 8O WTF... |

| What is it with "calling out" people lately? Unless you have a degree in human psychology and have done 4-5 hour interviews in person, no one on this site has any basis for saying some else is or isn't autistic.

He could also be reading off a computer screen. (shrugs)

He also mentions in one that autistics should be happy celebrities are talking about autism. He seems to be repeating informat... |

| I am creative. Who defines the rules of what is creative and what is not? I didn't know creativity was supposed to be about how many other people were involved while you were in the middle of making a creation.

The only things I watch on TV
Wheel of Fortune
Jeopardy
South Park (when I have cable)
Hell's Kitchen
I think out of all of those, Hell's Kitchen would be considered drama
I watched America's Next Top Model but only because Heather was on there. |

Posted a video about that. Yeah those people are jerks. People act like it's the homeschooling that made him lack social cues. It's fairly obvious to me he's an aspie.
Here is a video that shows more about him and his other interests. Also shows that he isn't caged up indoors. |
