| Also, as a side note, I can watch a movie and interpret facial expressions and body language with reasonable clarity. Would a true AS person be mystified by drama in the media? I prefer really high minded films and comedies. If I'm not thinking about what's going on as far as symbols, metaphors, et... |

| Just looking at eyes, I lose my train of thought and feel completely overwhelmed. They look confusing and empty in the sickest and scariest ways imaginable. I don't know why really, but when I do force myself to look somebody in the eyes it reminds me of something cold and distant out of 1984 or Fah... |

| Redmage(s) use the abilities of both Black Mages and White Mages and have the combat abilities of a Fighter, but are dilettantes and are not as good at any one ability as are any of the other classes; they are the "jack of all trades, yet master of none" sort of class. In general, they are only able... |

| I figure we should talk about general coping skills we've found effective. Might be cool to see how other people handle complex social situations, or how they think of them to make it easier. Me first, I guess. 8O I've developed sort of this shotgun approach to meeting new people. I'll throw myself ... |

| Juggernaught, how old are you? (I don't mean to be intrusive or stalkerish .. heh) This used to happen allot to me when I was younger (Jr. High), eventually I found out that most the people arguing with me were doing it to tease me rather than to make a point. |
