Uhh ... what? Aren't autistics far MORE likely to be "nerdy"/"geeky" than NT's? Indeed I would expect most "nerds"/"geeks" to be somewhere in the "broad autistic phenotype," if they don't have ASD.

I'm something of a nerd and fit the Broad Autistic Phenotype for females.

The people who are in love with there own face use often a selfie-stick. In my view there is a word which reflects it better.

Reader Digest getting naughty?

No way!

Proud nerd here.

Needy togetherist. (only togetherist isn't actually a word or is a neologism but feels like cheating)

I'm a poet and I do it a lot with my poetry and I love reading books that do it. People wonder why I like writers like Joyce (and doubt I do because they're idiots so everyone else has to be, according to them), it's because of stuff like that. I also enjoy cryptic crosswords :)

In the last few years, I think RD has pushed the envelope with its jokes.

I ♥ Mateus

My mind, bones, blood, and flesh, are the product of evolution, not from religion. So the anagram is not a word playing to express positive feelings to the evangely of Mateus, "I ♥ Mateus" is a anagram from something else. 8)

I love cryptic crosswords usually but sometimes like today I get to them and they're near impossible.
Then I get angry and remember their name has two meanings...

One clue I got :) (Sunday Post this week paraphrasing)
'verse writer turned dull' = drab

If you're learning how to spell, make up some woman you don't like. Together is spelt 'to get her'. 'Weather' is spelt 'we at her'. I used to have loads of these when I was about 10.

LAT-relatie

In the Netherlands we use 'LAT-relatie'. The same like the Britisch use it (Living-Apart-Together)
But LAT means in the Dutch language also something else, it means 'stick', a stick where you can beat someone. That kind of LAT-relatie is normaly not nice. Ive made a image for that second meaning.
