Not really an autism joke, but my husband and I were cooking one day and I told him in complete seriousness, "These mushrooms look a little moldy." He thought I was serious and didn't get the joke at all. Like, he was upset that the mushrooms were moldy, because he was looking forward to eating them.

I told the joke to my husband's parents too, and his dad laughed right away and his mom didn't get it at all until I explained it. I am sure my father-in-law is Aspie too, for many reasons.

I don't get it. I mean mold is a fungus, but I still don't understand what's funny or clever in the joke.


Mushrooms are fungus. So a mushroom naturally looks moldy.

To me they look mushroomy. And tasty. They don't look moldy to me.

The whole forum is full of necrophiliacs.

"If you were to count the number of hot dogs sold at a Premier League football match on any given saturday, chances are, you're autistic."


With or without onions?

Q: How many Wrong Planet moderators does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: Three; one to comment about the old bulb's dim behavior, a second to remove it, and a third to reinstall it a week later under guidance it must shine again or face being permanently removed.


Q: How many moderators from other websites does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: None. Other website moderators do not change lightbulbs; they ban lightbulb jokes instead.
