Meh, I used to be, but since I don't really talk much to anyone, people apparently don't know what to say, lol

Yeah, I'm sure if I said I was a furry to anyone though, I'm sure they'd say "OMG YOU F*** ANIMALS!! !! !! !! !! !!1111111!!!11!!11"

...which we all know to be an obvious lie. Spare me from having to catch your stupid, NTs :P (doesnt to apply to all NTs, only arrogant and annoying ones)

let's see, what else...
Never really heard anyone talk about me behind my back, so that's reassuring...
Also, I try my best (which is pretty d*** good) to act mature around others
Also, given how much I stand out (maturity and intelligence-wise) you'd think people would try to pester me. it's crazy how much I stand out, really

My experience: kids are cruel, teens are mean. Adults are somewhat better, they're mostly too busy and have too many real problems to care.

* Of the way you look
-> Weird curly hair... certainly they mock me for that! Also I never wear make-up and that strikes them as being odd.
* The way you dress
-> Yep! I wear the same clothes like everyday ;) lol it annoys them. And what I wear is 'not in fashion' i.e. is not low-cut.
* What kind of music you listen to
-> Parodies and Nightwish... yeah they find that odd.
* What kind of people you hang out with(or the people that you DON'T hang out with)
-> Yes. Oh my, yes. I spend most of my time with another autistic girl, and so we stand out like, well, a couple of sore thumbs.
* Your hobbies and interests
-> Cartoons. Yes, I've been mocked for my love of retro cartoons a lot. Well I can't help my obsessive nature.

So yeah, I'm basically an outcast. I'm never allowed to take part in anything... sometimes even the teachers won't let me do anything... What are they afraid of, for crying out loud?? And no one talks to me unless they're instructed to by the teacher. I feel like a caged animal.

I don't know if my 'schoolchums' know if I have AS, but I reckon they must have a pretty good idea about it, seeing as I'm on the middle to higher end of the scale.
