Wow, some people must not have a life if all they do is sit around making fun of people who are different from them...
Needless to say, I'm not going back to that website anymore. It was only my second day there and I was already getting bullied. To contrast, I've been on WP for 5 years and I've only had 3 isolated instances where people were unkind to me.
Was it Autism Speaks, or a different one?
No, it was called Gaia Online. The setup of the website is actually pretty fun - you post on the forums and play games in order to get "gold" (in-game points) which you then exchange for items to dress up your avatar, which on that particular website is a little doll-like thing that everyone has underneath their username. But the thing is, the people who use that website are very rude. It's not autism-friendly at all. It's a shame that such a fun little game gets turned into a nightmare by the people who use it.

I ran into a former friend who was on his way out of a video game store today. I was quite out of it though and didn't even notice who he was (Face didn't click in my mind as known quickly enough) or what he said, and then my father said that was the former friend 
.
Even what my father said didn't register very quickly... After a few minutes it clicked that I'd just ignored him unintentionally. We aren't friends anymore, but that surely seemed pretty awful to ignore someone saying hi, whom of which I had been friends with for over 4 years and hadn't seen in almost 2 years 
... and that made me feel bad

The ending to Assassins Creed 1. A repetitive, unchallenging game, with an unsatisfying ending

Sounds like my last weekend
Hahah! Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I can't sit around forever watching The Office reruns.
