What is your first name? Tyler

Age: 30

Location: USA

Hobbies and Interests: Primary obsessions - cars, photography, movies, computers plus a rotating fixation or two that changes every few months give or take. currently it's the cold war

Why are you here? I don't understand me.

When were you diagnosed?(skip if you don't have a disorder): Recently

Favorite subjects: Changes year to year, month to month

Year/Grade: Dropped out of college, couldn't stand it.. i did not want to do homework, it was insulting to me. and i don't know why it was, it just was. so i did badly even though it was all such a cakewalk.

Favorite music: honest, creative music

Books: books about the cold war or books that were topical during the cold war, such as the guns of august

TV shows/Movies: SG1, BSG, Formula 1, Mythbusters, documentaries

Plans for the future? try to learn how to cope with AS in order to lead more than a one or two dimensional, structured life. try to learn how to lead a life where things like ambiguity, social situations, reading between the lines, and interpersonal relationships don't automatically strike fear in my heart.

Any comments? no.

What is your first name? Danny.

Age: 21

Location: New York

Hobbies and Interests: Gaming, anime, pro-wraaaaaaslin' *chairsmack*, writing, web design and reading articles.

Why are you here? To whimsically seek validation from a like-minded bunch of faceless, voiceless blobs of text, and possibly be a jerk for a few laughs. The main intention was lurking, though.

When were you diagnosed? : Before the fifth grade.

Favorite subjects: Literature and History

Year/Grade: college junior

Favorite music: KMFDM, Rage Against the Machine, Primus, System of a Down, Nightwish

Books: Tonto and the Lone Ranger Fistfight in Heaven (... or was it the other way around?), Inherit the Wind. FYI, I love reading, but find absolutely irritating the act of having to sit down and read a book.

TV shows/Movies: The Boondocks, Family Guy, Action, Venture Brothers, Mission Hill, Samurai Champloo

Instrument: .................. Nah, too wrong.

Do you like sports? Not really, but if you count it as a sport, I was quite the lethal hackeysack player in high school. ;)

Family: Mother and father, really mean and whiny older sister that started being nice to my family out of a need for survival after moving out of the house so my folks think I should stop wanting her dead. Yeah, good luck with that, I say.

Clothing: Mostly comedic and video game-related, with some dragons thrown in.

How did you find this website? A search for online aspergers communities, as I was thinking about starting one of my own. I haven't decided on anything yet, though.

Job: Part-time job stocking dairy product in a Wegmans grocery store. It's arguably one of the best grocery chains in the whole friggin' world (it is in itself a tourist attraction in my city) and my coworkers are very nice, funny and helpful, but I still don't think I was meant for this line of work...

Plans for the future? Software developer or writer.

Any comments? Purple monkey dishwasher.

of my listed hobbies/interests. Reading is a passion for me but I'm not into fiction much.

TV shows/Movies: TV shows - The Simpsons and Sex & The City, collecting DVD's of both series as I can't stand the SO of commercial TV.

I get glued to Rage all night when I don't feel up to going out. Movies - total Hitchcock addict but also love some of the worst, z-grade horror trash ever made. Anything with Peter Sellers, especially The Party. As for more recent films...Lost In Translation and The Motorcycle Diaries have probably been my two favourites out of the last decade.

Instrument: Clarinet. Well enough to deter intruders, at least.

Do you like sports? Yes...tennis in particular. Also take an interest in the AFL (when Collingwood are doing well) and, well I guess soccer although I'm typing this while Australia v. Italy is on the TV so I guess I'm not THAT passionate.
