I'm nice at heart.
If I'm not nice it's unwittingly or towards people who's really not being nice.

| Personally, I'd do it if I really wanted the job. It may as well be a chance to see if the job is what you expect. Perhaps better, perhaps worse than what you immagine. Either way, 3 h of your life isn't much. As for normal I don't know. It is different with cultures and countries, for example unpai... |

I have about 200 ancestors identified and almost all are Swedish.
A couple are Finnish, but Finland wasn't a country but a part of Sweden at the time; one is possibly Estonian, but Estonia was a part of Sweden at the time. The only non Swedes are a couple of Danes.

My diagnosis says both 
ICD-10: Aspergers; DSM-5: Autism level 1
There is no doubt in my mind that it's the same thing.
I usually say "I am diagnosed with autism level 1, also known as aspergers and sometimes (though I don't think it's a proper term) high functioning autism."

| My guess would be that they are complete oposites. NPD. Knows very little, but is good at convincing people that they are experts in everything, and they believe they are. ASD. Knows a lot in a narrow field, but is not good at convincing others, and perhaps doesn't know how good they are "the m... |

| I don't mind socializing with others, but I don't need it. And with most people, it gets really awkward really fast, since I usually don't have much to add to the conversation so it kinda dies out. When I discovered alcohol in my late teens, it was like unlocking a mistery. Suddenly I could speak wi... |

Sorry, but I have problems parsing your question.
Why artists make art? It's like why do the hungry eat.

| Comic books are my favorite. It's just that I don't read it as much. Comic book anthologies are huge. How many writers can be involved in these kind of books? I don't really understand the question. Anthologies are a collection of works from different artists. Or do you mean books like The Walking ... |

| I tend to cook large batches of food, so eating the same dish for a week or two is quite normal for me. I in fact have no problems eating the same for much longer, up to a year in my 20ies, but as I've developed an interest for cooking over the years I make different dishes. I try to keep them relat... |

| Cool to me is being yourself. I met an Aussie in China who refused to wear shoes. That's cool. He didn't do it to be cool, he just disliked wearing shoes. When I was a punk rocker I never bought the uniform of studded leather jackets and mohawk, I opted for a hippie style. I like to think that was c... |
