| Asperger's syndrome is a context disability analoguous to how being left handed is a context disability in environments set up for right-handers (of course, Asperger's syndrome is probably more disabling in most contexts unless the context is burning lefties at the stake!). There are benefits to th... |

| The only AS thing I really have to hide is my obsessive nature, but that's more to be polite than anything. Everything else about me just comes off as me being eccentric or an as*hole, can't say which connects to which trait. |
