Yes you should feel guilty; cats have been our allies for thousands of years. Please please don’t kill cats, and please don’t kill anything for pleasure. |

| Yes I feel guilty as well, especially when I can hear their poor terrified squeaks. But I also know that it is a very good thing, otherwise my house would be overrun with mice (and mice can spread disease and eat up your food). And I am proud and grateful to my cats, they are just protecting their h... |

| I didn't notice how many posts you have ... Chances are, you've scanned the various forums and found something that interests you deeply, yes ??? Yes I have interests (don’t know if I’d use the word deeply though), I just don’t happen to be great at anything. I guess I kind of lied about having no ... |

| We're not all savants, you know. That's a mis-conception. This is more what I was wondering about, if being supper good at something is almost always the case with aspies, or if that is just a stereotype. Sorry if my first question came out sounding more like I was complaining about not being reall... |

| Yes I have wanted to stop talking before, because I fell like everything I say comes out wrong. And because I very often misunderstand what other people say, and fell like they misunderstand me. Whenever I have a bunch of misunderstandings in a row I kind of break down and then say as little as poss... |

| People’s eating sounds bug me a lot. Which is why I can’t stand eating at the table, and only do so when I absolutely can’t get out of it. Also I have to levee the room when certain people eat because their so loud. |

| I've noticed a lot of my experiences seem vague and distant after only a short time. Like I saw them on TV or they happened to someone else and I only heard about them. Yes, I have felt this way often, like stuff in the past sometimes doesn’t feel like it really happened. But I don’t know if this i... |
