THIS WAS ALL A JOKE THE PERSON DID. HE HAS ASPERGERS TOO.

There, hopefully people will understand what I had just said.

It's a bad joke, one of the perpetrators has Aspergers.

By getting worked up over something like this, you make yourself look foolish.

I was pissed off before logging on, and it was the first thing I looked at. I just wanted to stress, how unfunny, it really was. I'm OK now.

Errr. If it's a joke can someone show me the funny... Is it sarcasm, irony, satire? I'm confused and not laughing...

I think what the joke was about is, it was about people who say AS doesn't exist and it's just an excuse for bad behavior so this aspie (I don't mean me) decide to make fun of it.

I don't know if it was sarcasm or irony or satire, I figured it was probably all a joke just by the way it sounded. You would have to ask the author about it.

It didn't anger me.
I did though find the video a bit boring.
. . .but then I guess having a video like that is part of the joke.

Just had another look. Still not laughing. Must be this Aspergers thing. How do we know one of them is AS? Because he said so? Maybe he's suddenly realized he's picked a fight and is getting scared.

There was an autistic who made fun of NTs by making a page about the condition and making the DSM criteria for it. Lot of us thought it was funny so why isn't anyone allowed to make fun of AS or make fun of people who are dumbass about it?

I don't think we should have this special rule "Don't make fun of aspies"

If this is a joke, it's a very bad one, specially considering that a lot of people (including people with AS or their families and/or friends) may read it and take it as the truth, thus contributing to the real "Asperger's is a lie" cause, which may prevent people from getting diagnosed, treated or accepted as such.

I take your point S_G; but I still reserve the right to be offended [But, maybe we shouldn't be making fun of the NT's]. But, as someone said before, replace aspergers with homosexuality and NOone's going to be laughing. But anyway, it's quite a serious criminal offense in the UK to pretend to be a doctor and my failure of sense-of-humour has led me to email a complaint to the Birkenhead Police...Funny or what Mr Northall?

This is the work of louts for the benefit of louts.....

Problem is this world has too many louts with too much time on their hands.

Can't wait to meet the 'Birkenhead Police'. I'm pretty sure I've never heard of them, which is kinda surprising as I live in Birkenhead and police cars go past a lot saying something completely different to 'Birkenhead Police'.

"People with "Asperger's" are unable to make eye contact not because of social anxiety, but for fear of exposing their lack of a soul."

This one kills me! I have no soul! Seriously, these people are extremely diluted if they believe this.
One other thing - when did we become a Pro-Cute Hate site? I thought this was just a forum for Aspies...where do they get this stuff?
Gawd, I want to scream at their ignorance!! !

Why are you lashing out against this guy?

This is obviously a joke and you are only serving to prove his point by trying to censor it.

It's not funny though! If even one person believes this crap, it's not a joke.
I have humor, but insulting us isn't really all that funny.
