WOW, You seemed so clearly AS, it is hard to believe you even went to the trouble! :lol:


With ME???

Just your discussion of filmmaking almost screams ASPIE! Likewise, I could discuss electronics or computers at a similar level

My mother wouldn't spend the time, and probably wouldn't do well. 8(

School was hell for ME also though.

I don't flap hands, walking on tiptoes is debatable, my rocking is subtle and relatively infrequent. I guess, according to wikipedia, I have mild dyspraxia(Though enough to help hurt social endeavors and PE.) and dyscalculia(I did ok in math, but do have more problems than I ever understood, and start to hit more and more symptoms as you go down the wikipedia list. ).

I tend to hide how upset I am, and I had SO much trouble discussing sensory issues that I was surprised my mother remembered after perhaps 37 years! Even the overactive mind doesn't seem quite so overactive anymore.

I didn't follow people when they were talking unless I was really interested, or wanted to get something overwith.

Otherwise, I would have looked like you, I guess.

It is interesting. If I was born like 12 years later, or if it had less of a stigma, I would have been diagnosed by now. At this point, I wonder if I will ever bother. But I am glad to hear you were diagnosed as you wanted, and are happy! It really sounds like you are aspie. :D And don't pay attention to helsinger. :roll:

Me too. I also build editing systems and advise on project workflow for film post-production.

..i was just offended with the way you said it. If i've un-intentionally upset somone I appologize to them and say that no offence was intended. I don't petulantly throw it back in their face, like you do.


I made it obvious after you took offense that no offense had really been intended. There was no need in me apologizing. If I thought that maybe my post had come across as too harsh, then I would have. But to reiterate: You taking offense to it is your problem.

Anyone who says otherwise has no grip on reality. Really? why do you feel the need to be so disrespectful to the opinions of others?


I stand by what I said, disrespectful of not. My reasoning is my own.

In real life... there's less of the unoriginal blabber; but still to the degree that I flip the 'block crap' switch.


This is nasty and offensive.


You yourself seem to have a blatant disrespect for my opinion. So much for being righteous.

No regrets on my part.

I'm sure if you do more "detective work" you'll find the answer to your own question in that very thread. Though, as unperceptive as you are, I am not going to hold my breath.

I pity you. You've got serious problems. It's obvious that you've come here to troll people, make snidey comments to them, disrespect their opinions and feelings, and then slap them down with petty self righteous abuse. You're a moron.


You ineffectively imitating my quirks to show me up is an indicator that jealousy and envy have already beset you.

Keep trying. It's good for a laugh.

You really have no idea what constitutes offensive remarks do you? Your general attitude to most people on this forum shows this in spades. Carry on with your jumped-up delusions of superiority. It's obviously doing nothing to ender you to anybody. I do not disrespect your opinion. I disrespect your attitude which in veers from smug condescension to abuse.

Imitate you? why would anyone be envious of someome who patronizes people from the get-go and who automatically does everything he can to belittle others?. You've only been on this board a short time and you've managed to p**s off a lot of people. The fact that you repeatedly fail to see how your remarks upset people (not just myself) shows that it's your perceptions that are lacking insight.

This is the last i'm going to say. I'm sick of your bulls**t. If you hate these forums so much, and judging by your bile-ridden posts, it's obvious that you do - then GO AWAY!

Hi autodidact,

congratulations with your diagnosis. :)
I myself was diagnosed one month ago with AS, and it was a really joyful day for me too! I had found out a lot about AS on beforehand (especially in here), had found many traits in myself and was quite sure, but it was great when it became official. :D

Good luck with your aspie life. :)

Anne.
