Some stupid NT kids are trying to cause trouble outside my apartment building. Grown kids who are in their late teens and early 20s.

I'd say that overgrown adolescents are annoying in any case. The self-diagnosed, deluded, poorly-researching cases of Münchausen's can be horrible simply because of the stereotypes they end up creating and reinforcing. (And of course, they mean that I have one less potential colleague later in life, which isn't always a good thing.) 8O Do I end up detaching myself from my peers too much?

I finished watching Hetalia today. I'm a little sad that there are no more episodes to watch, because that show was really cute and funny. Definitely one of the better anime I've seen in awhile.

Now I'm watching something completely different on Netflix: Invader Zim. I remember when it used to be on Nickelodeon, though I honestly didn't think about it very much during that time. I think I'm able to appreciate its dark humor better as an adult, because I like it a lot more this time around.

I want to start watching Anime now and I've never watched it. I want to see what it's like and what I'm missing out on. :)

I've been away for 1.25 days to gather my thoughts

I wonder if abandoning social interaction (like my 20111215-20111221 leave) for further thinking and development of ideas is common on the spectrum. I'd imagine it would occur more frequently because we experience less of an extroverted drive, but it could be uncommon.

My mum's car was stolen earlier this year. Was it selfish of her to want it back? No, the car was rightfully hers and it was an injustice that she no longer had it. The thief is the selfish one for taking it.

The same analogy applies to me and all that was deprived of/stloen from me. I'm not selfish either.

I'm lost here. Did someone seriously say that stealing is just and wanting the stolen goods returned (as opposed to stealing the goods in the first place) is selfish?

No, it's just me reasoning with myself.
