I could read it too, but it's harder than normal text. Takes a bit more time. But it's possible.

I am strange just because I read that faster than regular text? You should try a more difficult one... :?

you can read it, because, as long as the first and last letters haven't been moved, it has been proven that most people can decipher writing like that, researchers aren't sure why yet, though

Actually I glanced at it for a fraction of a second, it didn't make any sense and I started from the end and it worked, word by word, faster than regular text, because it is a simple very simple sentence, I am not trying to sound Einstein (because I am no Einstein, I have very big comprehension problems), but that's how it worked for me. I think that there were very few letters and words to mean ANYTHING as brain goes...life has much more trying things than this. I feel like we are getting drunk with water here, on this forum, sometimes...sorry for being cynical. Lately, posting and reading makes me feel even more innapropriate than I am, because it shows me how immature I really am...sorry...

It's okay. Apparently it's been around a while, but I posted it because I thought it was interesting. It's just for fun. I didn't mean for it to turn into an intelligent debate so if you think it's pointless, then maybe you're right. :wink:

I did not mean to hurt anyone's feelings, but what I am trying to say, and that's probably going to get me kicked out of here...I am trying to say that lately I felt, reading a lot of posts, that we aspies (and I wonder how many of us are aspies for real and what's so special about it), so I think (that's only my opinion!! !), is that a lot of the people here are very arrogant and immature (I am the first one on this list, don't take me wrong). I did not come to this conclusion because of your post, but I posted here because it was the last post I read, so it's kind of...I shot the messenger. Rarely did I feel support here, I have real problems, like how to raise a kid with AS when I am messed up with AS myself...how to function at work without freaking out my NT coworkers (or be alienated from them), how to manage my depression, how to know when I am really in love with someone and what's normal to happen when you're trying to find a mate (just like in the animal world... AS made me stupider than animals in some respects), what symptoms people experience, to see if I they resemble mine and maybe we can help each other correct it...so I rarely found any comfort here...anyway...sorry if I am blunt...Good luck everybody!! ! Be happy!! ! I'll be too and I am not going to expect anything from anybody...

Me too LOL

Actually, being able to read that means you have a normal mind, not a strange one. We studied this phenomenon in cognitive psychology in college.

Good! Don't expect anything from anyone here, you shouldn't. No one here owes anything to anyone else here. This forum doesn't promise comfort, just information and awareness and other people with autism. If you find comfort, super; if you don't, such is life. We all have "real problems". I don't exect anyone to coddle me and fix my psychological boo-boos. If you're looking for that, you'll be routinely disappointed.

What does this have to do with the OP?

You DO have "psychological boo-boos" (besides real problems, that I believe you do) and I would never need to "coddle" (whatever the f... that means) up with you, the only man that cuddled me lately is actually very smart and kind...and very handsome and good in bed, also :wink: So don't worry, I am not expecting you to "coddle" me.

And no need to answer, maybe you can use the time to relax...

I think when Siuan used the word "coddle", from context, I understood her clearly to mean it in its sense "To treat as an invalid in need of nourishing food and nursing; to nurse overmuch." It clearly was not used as in "To boil gently, parboil, stew" and I suspect she would have said cuddle if she meant that, rather than using "coddle" in a dialectic sense.
However, I did find Siuan's use of the word "exect" (To cut out.) quite disturbing. The concept of chopping someone up in order to force them to be overly nice to you... very odd.

Thank you. What I find disturbing is that Siuan has the nerve to judge a person with AS. The fact that she screws an Aspie (I read her posts, some...she has a ton and I realized that she is actually supose to be a woman/mother/wife of an Aspie) does not make her an expert in Autism. Yes, maybe I have my days when I am a total b***h, but I am not a monster...I mentioned before that I am not trying to hurt anybody's feelings, I was just stating that I was dissapointed and I shot the messenger kind of thing...I am human...
