Call them with this one thing on your mind. The price of kitty litter at one store as opposed to another. Not kidding.


I believe. I believe. I used to visit my gran who would spend the entire visit comparing the price of sliced ham from one shop to another. It used to melt my brain.

5- Ask them "what's wrong?" anytime you come into the room and see them not smiling


God only knows how many times I did that. :? :oops:

.....

I hope nobody said this, but I bet you have. :oops:

-At a party, tell a small group of typical people a cool joke that makes perfect sence to you. Be flat in posture, and use a monotone voice. When you recognize their confusion expression, explain the joke and deflate the mood completly.

I'm guilty of doing this. :oops:

233) Ask an aspie about their specific interest, and act incredibly interested. Ask details, specifics, have them explain the point of interest and start to occupy them with it.

(Whenever my friends do this it drives me crazy,because it's always the kind of thing that's exclusive to me and I can't explain it to them and don't want to.)

well I like it when people ask about a special interest if they actually want to know about it.....

234). Ask about their special interest.....ask a specific detailed question and then get annoyed at them for giving "too much information"

54. Making fun of them for stimming


I was made fun of a lot as a child for this and ridiculed by my father, so #54 hits home with me.

I haven't been picked on for it in ages but I occasionally get caught doing it when I don't realize I'm doing it. My stimming is always finger tapping or finger flicking... I tend to zone out quite often while doing this. So here is a 28 year old man, who appears to be daydreaming while rapidly flicking his fingers, when a coworker walks in and blurts out.. "wtf is wrong with you? Are you ok?". Not to mention I doubt I am making a very NT facial expression during this. I can laugh about it now.


Constantly ask if you are sick because you keep sniffing.

Make fun of you for flipping your hair. I do that all the time.. even though I just got my hair cut yesterday and there is no hair to flip.

236). If you are a very socially skilled individual make the same mistakes said aspie has been harshly critisized for making several times in the past ........such as being blunt, correcting pronunciation of a word , or even stimming but do it in the right way at the right time and have it make you look cute, fun etc.

I hate it when my friend does this.....it isn't her fault at all.....but it's so annoying

Not much makes me mad like this does.

Interrupt me when I'm doing something and then get mad at me because I'm irritated by your interruption. Now I'm mad at you for two things, not just one.

Get mad when I call you on some BS you're trying to pull on me. It's my right to not sit there and take it, I don't care if you are my supervisor or best friend or what (yeah, both of them are guilty of this)
