| It seems really weird to me to see "energy drinks" bunched in with alcohol and drugs. I despise alcohol/tobacco/drugs. They make people act like idiots and shorten lifespans. Tea/coffee, well, I don't like them, but I don't think any less of people who do enjoy them or are even addicted to caffeine... |

| I can be very funny, which I think is largely due to the perspective Aspergers gives me, but I also make a lot of jokes that fall flat. |

I like being called by my name, it reassures me.
I hate overhearing my name though. |

| energy drinks=caffine=drugs...and caffine is addictive so there are certainly people addicted to energy drinks(they are really just addicted to the caffine). I know it is possible due to the caffeine content, I just thought people were more likely to drink tea or coffee. It still seems weird to me,... |

| Most of my friends are male (there are maybe 10 males I see regularly who I would call friends), and I spend most of my time with them, but I enjoy being with my five or so female friends more. I just made a rough list, 20 males and 6 females. At school, I'm with at least one of them pretty much con... |

| I was sort of forced out when some people were saying pretty derogatory things about Aspies. I pointed out their wrongness, so they asked me who I was to comment on it, after all, they had a cousin with it, or had once met someone with austism. A few years later, I was asked why I was "such a ret*d"... |

What, a kid refusing to stand up is newsworthy in America? Blimey.
No, I cannot. I didn't realise one of my good friends had Asperger's until his sister told me. |

| Is one book covering both angles a good idea? You're effectively asking someone to buy a book, 50% of which is near useless to them. How about two shorter books, if possible? |
