| I've seen it diagnosed on 2 people where i thought this just can't be right. They have been shifting between getting a pdd-nos diagnosis in the past and now asperger. It seems to me that the asperger label is now being distributed more widely. But these were people that were even more social, and ta... |

| The main issue to me even though i'm not American is the envirementalism trend. Everything seems to focus on it these days as if the world is coming to an end and we only have a few more years to stop it. While in reality the temperature has never had the same average for years on end. Ice ages and ... |

I just do thinks pretty much randomly wether i'm employed or not.
I can't stand planning things days ahead even though there is no way around it.
But you know with work times and social life people like to plan fun things weeks or months ahead.
I prefer to just live from day to day. |

Ofcourse when it comes to the population of people over 60 the result would be hugely different. Than there are also a coup... |

I often have people asking me what's wrong or why i'm angry.
This at moments when i'm just totally focussed on something or sunk away deeply into thought.
It doesn't make much sence to me, i'm glad not everyone thinks this. |

Here jehova's witnesses have tried to convert me 2-3 times lol.
The reason why i dislike this is because my parents actually converted to that when i was a kid.
Luckily they saw the light some years later and freed us from the agony of having to go to the "kingdom house" every sunday. |
