| I think modern nerd/geek culture (especially the mainstream) is an orchestrated byproduct of the mass consumerist based economic order that Edward Bernays helped to create (I guess you can call me one of those aspie "nerds" before it was "cool" to be one). Likewise, I think there... |

| Used to love Cadbury's (UK) all the time growing up (especially the Wispa bar, so glad when they reproduced it in 2008) as long as I can remember, and I really loved their Easter eggs. Until of course, they were bought over by Kraft Foods (now owned by Mondelez) in 2010 and subsequently shipped thei... |

| I think this phenomenon applies to everyone regardless of extrinsic factors such as medications and aliments (neurological, mental and immunological), although it may be amplified for us spectrumites as we have more intricate gustatory senses.

| Unfortunately as someone who has had up to 11 cats (5 currently), I can see why supermarket bosses would be troubled with someone with a cat on their shoulder when you consider the prevalence of cat allergies being at least twice as common as that of dogs.

| I have a stringent preference for soft clothing, predominantly in the form of long staple cottons (from "generic" pima to luxurious extra-long staple supima or sea island cottons); cotton-silk blends, cotton-cashmeres (and a tri-combination blend of the three) and pure silks and cashmere (... |
