do you get overly excited about seemingly small things?

nope, i still detect sarcasm. did you donate half of your belongings freely, or were you ordered by the courts?

Hey! how are you? My name is Bobo the hamster. I'm hungry! Give me food now!

I haven't handed anything over, yet... but, I would donate them freely and the courts would just help me in deciding which half to hand over.

I always remember the scene from 'American Beauty' with the plastic bag twirling in the wind eddy. And the strange neighbour dude who can observe the silence between the noise and takes the heroine away from it all.

There is beauty living parallel alongside our lives, but NT's are so busy preening for the popularity contest, that much of the beauty in the world outside their realm of attention (consciousness) goes unnoticed

Aint we the ones that are supposed to be too wrapped up in ourselves??

Sheesh........... I'm starting to see a pattern emerging with some aspects of AS diagnosis and its getting uglier and uglier.

mmmmhmmm as i suspected.

i would say that gold-veined Venetian marble is indeed exciting, but i would not want to save it for when i am dead.

OMG!! !! so cute!! !! SQUEEEEEE!! !! !! ! his cheeks are so fat!! !! i feel the urge to squish him in a squishy squish-hug. thank you for that!! !! !

I'm hungry! What are you giving me for dinner?

yes, i see what you mean. i always knew that aspies have special interests and find those particular things fascinating, but i didn't know if there were other people who get all excited and distracted and amused and enthused by "small things". i am so glad i asked.

i'm not gonna lie - bad experiences and negativity permeate a great deal of my life, and i am not so naive that i think that rainbows and sparkly things will cure world hunger or create world peace... BUT the world is also full of beautiful, wonderful, fascinating things if we allow ourselves to pay attention.

i need to learn to tone it down a little in real life i guess (though if i haven't managed by now there is probably slim hope of that), but at least i know that other people on here share a similar perspective!

<Leviathans> You should feed Bobo, he is getting pretty hungry.


<Bobo> Bobo is hungry! What are you going to give Bobo for dinner?

hmmmmwhat do plushies eat? dust bunnies and cotton balls? or..... KISSES?

<Bobo> Noooooo, Bobo does not like kisses!! ! Bobo wants to eat gummy bears and candy.

ok ok, Bobo can have gummi bears and candy. how bout licorice?

<Bobo> Yay! I like candies! Bobo is happy now.
<Bobo> Bobo is going to sleep now because is master is supposed to work right now but he is currently pretending to be an hamster plushie on a discussion board.

you just cracked me up. i let out a lol at work. thanks for playing with me, Bobo and master leviathans!

I felt miserably when I saw 4 pages building up against my slow reading capabality BUT thanks to Bobo and his respectful master leviathans I'm relieved now! - That's one.

Playing with puddles, I've totally forgotten this, I used to do it too in my childhood, and not exactly scarcely. Sometimes I was just watching the oil marks slowly flowing on different paths on the surface of the water, assuming magnificent colours and shapes.

Cute animals, plushies, drawings or pictures of them are always pleasure to my eyes. In fact, when I see an irregular, non-figurative pattern, like some carpets or wall-carpets have on them, I see figures of cartoonish caricatures instead of random patterns... I rest my sight on them for quite long. I used to think of it as some kind of childish madness that remained in me somehow. Now I'm more tolerant with myself, thanks to discovering AS.

I like dogs, cats, hares, hamsters (I had several when I was a kid too), and a bunch of other animals. Here's little orphaned Vuk, one of my favourite characters from my childhood, his creator is Dargay Attila.



Sometimes natural scenes make me feel so relaxed and happy. When I cycle on certain places I like very much, I feel even excited, like I did last weekend in the Bükk-montains.

Not exactly excited, but a very pleasant and almost loving feeling when I look at the large pile of my audio equipments (R2R tape recorders, amplifiers, turntables, tape decks, tuners etc.), many of them are under the protection of my affection, as if they were an important part of my life...
