I'm pretty good at maths, Got A @ A Level.
However, I'm not very good when it comes to counting, simplistic calculations. But when it comes to algebraic equations, calculus, statistics and all that crap - I find them easy. Very bizarre. |

| What is with all the autie/aspie pride? Although, It's great that people have pride in themselves, there's a point where it goes from pride to narcissism. I've seen literally hundreds of posts claiming that people with AS are of some superior race. Have i been missing something? Aspergers has been n... |

Nah, I don't give a damn about online friends. I would quite happily screw them over and never see them again.
I do that to my 'real' friends too though, lol. |

| Maybe just practice small talk? I know it seems a little boring but maybe start off like "hello how are you?" Ask what people did with their day. Make small comments on the things they say. You may even get into a lengthy nice conversation by starting off with some small talk. Its what's helped me,... |

Anything about socializing in general; sex, relationships, gossip, work. It's tedious and pointless.
How can i benefit from knowing how many sexual partners my friend has had or who has been sleeping with who? (Rhetorical). |

| Yes i do feel like an outsider. There are a lot of naive fools in this community and it annoys me. It seems to me that it is some kind of contest on here, as to who's the most Aspie. I don't know why, but that's the feeling i get. My theory is that 60% of the people on this website are not on the sp... |

If the world was full of aspies, and NTs were the minority, NTs would still be the most Advantaged group of people.
So using that logic; No. |

| You are 11% neurotypical! You aren't neurotypical at all. Sure, it may mean others think of your social skills as "very poor", but that's doesn't mean you aren't good at anything, you probably have a skill other than socializing, which is probably not something you enjoy anyway. It is very likely t... |

| I don't look at the person when i'm talking to them. I'll quickly glance at them so they know i'm actually talking/listening to them. If i look in their eyes, i will be thinking "Has it been too long? How long do you look in someone's eyes before it's 'creepy'". These questions are racing through my... |

| I scored 36. A lot better than my previous score of 41. I don't think the test is very accurate though. 'It does not upset me if my daily routine is disturbed' This is a main symptom of Aspergers, and it gets the same ammount of points as I am fascinated by dates. Some of the 'questions' should get ... |
