| I talked it over with the rest of my friend group, and we've agreed to politely inform him of how he is making us uncomfortable, and that we'll welcome him more readily into the group ONLY if he is sincerely trying to improve his behavior. That way, if he genuinely wants to be friends with us, he ca... |

| Thank you very much for the advice. I'm not a very confrontational person normally, and due to having autism it is a little difficult for me to recognize when people like Brian are acting inappropriately and how to exactly to approach them about it. In fact, before I talked to the other members in t... |

| Hey guys, I'm posting here for the first time since high school because I've run into a bit of a problem and would like your advice. My main friend group right now consists of mostly other autistic people like myself. One of the guys in our friend group, "Brian" (an autistic person), is re... |

As a libertarian myself, it's depressing that the fake "libertarianism" propagated by Rand Paul and the Tea Party is giving the public a false notion about actual libertarians.
I have nothing against Rupaul, though. Or sheep. |

I've heard people knock it because the Cars films were weak compared to the rest of the Pixar oeuvre, but in my opinion, it certainly shows that Pixar still has a knack for creating visually beautiful animated films (though we'll h... |

| The same thing I believe about all other "theories" about the supposed causes of autism: it's a load of bullcrap that's primarily based around the belief that autism is a horrible disease, instead of the cognitive difference that it is. Pollution is still a horrible thing, but I don't think it cause... |

Similarly, I've met some NTs that I've gotten along with, and some that I haven't gotten along with so much. Like several people have already said, it depends... |

It could become a cult system that needs to be hacked to get the games to play on it when they shut off the servers, because it would be basically an elaborate Blu-Ray player, without the servers.

You're a Halo fan, TheWadeSmellbringer? I couldn't tell!
Seriously, though, I agree with you guys. The Xbox One is going to be Microsoft's equivalent of the Virtual Boy. I'm all for boycotting it. |

Battlefront 2 is my favorite shooter of all time as well. Too bad I can't play it because my PS2 broke and I'm too lazy to buy it on Steam (that, and I don't have a credit card). |
