| The techniques in the books GroovyDruid recommended, while possibly (probably?) excellent for relating to NT women, will not work on Aspie women. Just as an aside :-). Oo. Yeah. Forgot to mention that caveat: aspie women are not of the same breed as NT women. These books are for relating to NTs, fo... |

| I used to earn a hefty paycheck from fixing people's computers, so it was necessary for me to develop a tough "computer stupidity shell" to stay sane :D . I have to say, though, I get a bit miffed when someone has their monitor set to a resolution for which it wasn't designed. Like 1024x768 on a wid... |

| I thought this topic was going to be about Draco and the Malfoys cheering Harry and the Potters at their concerts. Anyway, I don't think a reader's own personal characteristics has as much to do with their enjoyment of a story as most people believe. People will find things to like in any well-writt... |

| I don't have any memory of ever believing in Santa, even though my parents shoved it down my throat all the time. At first, I thought the story was just a really tenuous magical metaphor for an actual event, since I couldn't fathom the idea that my parents would flat-out lie to me. But by the time I... |

| I used to have a scrawny, ill-tempered gray tomcat named Joe, but 20 minutes ago I decided to disown the ungrateful beast after it took advantage of my brief absence, snuck into my room, laid down on my laptop keyboard, and proceeded to dine on my exceedingly delicious tuna sub. |

Google him, the story is fascinating.
Jandek is indeed a fascinating and possibly aspie character. It's too bad his songs are so cruddy -- genuine recluses are so refreshing in the music industry. |
