| Haha, when do you think it would have been better to be autistic than right now? This is just one of those...things were better "back in the day"... And that is almost never accurate if you actually think about it. Things in general have never been better, they are still awful ofc, but do you really... |

| One of the following: #1. Absolutely nothing. It doesn't have anything to do with you. It is none of your business. Ignore it. #2. Laugh. It is funny when normal people suffer. You dont really mean that though, do you? Do you really respond to suffering like that when faced with it, finding it amus... |

| This is actually something I'm good at! I've had a LOT of practice. I've answered this before so will be repeating myself. If its a stranger, ask if he/she need help. I always do. Or dont. Up to you. If its a friend you should try to be there for that person, because that is what friends do. Remembe... |

| Okay since my social skills are good I shall answer these. It all depends on context though. When someone tells you he/she had a bad day? Say, like, "yeah? how so?". Often they want to talk about it, sometimes not, but NOT asking a follow-up question to something like that is in most situations kind... |

| Oh for f***s sake. 1. There is no such thing as the friendzone. 2. Seems like she wants to stay friends. God knows why but thats probably why she hasn't broke off contact with you. Because she likes you. When a person, NT or otherwise, likes someone they can have conflicts and still want to maintain... |

I moved out of my parents house when I was 20 years old (also for six months when I was 16, but that was a TERRIBLE idea and ended horribly). I( think this whole t... |

| Short Answer: No we're not. Long Answer: This was an uncomfortable read, as it always is. You have a developmental disorder. Thats it. Its not a superpower. This isnt a movie. Autistic people do not in any way function on a "higher level of consciousness". Its just a neurological disorder, buddy . O... |

(Yes, he wanted disabled people dead aswell) Not exactly, there was actually a lot about having a strong master race, weakness did matter...basically hitler wanted the best of the genetic sp... |

My DNA is weak and I never forget any insult a person says to me because my genetics make me emotionally immature. But we should still tolerate weak people and pansies unlike Hit... |
