I am perturbed by compliments. Not that I get that many - but those I do get fluster me.
Possible factor 1: the Spectrum Possible factor 2: my family gave 0.00000001 to the 5th power compliments.
I am sometimes censured for producing few and inadequate compliments. |

Cultural appropriation - I know that is not the focus, but I cannot help reacting. Exactly what proportion of the culture of African sourced Americans - and cultures would be more correct - does anyone seriously believe is African? My answer - very little.

Frankly, in my not a few years of experience, ithas not been worth saying anything to 95%. A few - often spectral like you - get you enough that you can talk about it - but I think that has to come first. I mentioned it to my brother and got yelled at for "using Asperger's as an excuse for my e... |

I seem to pop into the forum about once a year - curiosity, I guess. Hoping things will have changed? Helpful hint - no clear evidence for change spotted in this groundhog's environment.

I am by no means the style of Evangelical dogmatist you speak of - nor any other kind, just a Christian sui generis.
But except for a sporadic visit like tonight I am no longere around - got fed up with pointless discussion in a forum where at sany given tikme abojut 5 knew how to think. |
