Something people often say to you

Post Reply New Topic

"Oh that is just Karla being Karla" (always right in front of me or within ear shot) Apparently my social blunders need to be excused. LOL!

I am a smiling sort of Aspie too. So I often get the "What are you up to?" question. I like keeping them all nervous and guessing. Besides.... it takes less muscles to smile then to frown.

They just give me well meaning advice that I need to take care of myself, which I often forget because I'm such a "Luna Lovegood" scatterbrain.

But if one thing is certain, it's that whiny tone of exasperation where you say someone's name with dispare and fustration. I hate that name, and when this is all over I'm changing it. Once I zap my old body with stem cells, (going to keep my Aspieness though).

1.. Why don't you jsut be yourself for, other people will most likely approach you and want to make friends with you
2.That's very strange cause, I don't know anyone else whom likes stuff like that.
3Sometimes I really feel your in another world altogether and really can't seem to understand you one bit..

"You and your fruit snacks!"(Usually followed by "Can I have one?", in which case I indulge, but not before bopping them on the head with the pouch first, )
"How the hell did you learn to play that song right away?!"
"How do you even remember that?"
"If (FireMinstrel) says your guitar is in tune, it's in tune!"(sincere)
"You're a BEAST!! !" (apparently, that means I'm amazing or something. You learn a new word every day)
"Drive faster!"
"You're going to be a diabetic when you're 35,"(related to the fruit snacks)

-I had a waitress who said if I smile she would flash me her tits.

[quote="liloleme"]I see a lot of people get the "Why dont you smile more?" or something similar. I got "What are you smiling about?" or "Why do you think that's funny?" Guess I smile and laugh at the wrong things! \

Another smiling-at-the-wrong-time Aspie here. I often have no idea I am smiling when someone alerts me to it. Also get a lot of "you look tired" and "you look sad" "is something wrong?" and "you're so quiet". And another one that drives me crazy is when someone asks me "How are you?" and I dutyfully reply "Fine" and they say "Yeah???" in a questioning tone like I'm lying - which I am but the whole question is phony to start with and I'm just saying what the hell you are supposed to say. I don't get this.

"You're stupid."
"Talk louder."..followed shortly by... "Don't bite my head off!"
"Open your mouth more." Stop ording me to serve you off job.
"You can't pass that test, so don't bother. It's for people who know the subject." (It's so 'inspireing' that trolls and loved ones alike give me this line sometimes.)
"What a vivid imagination." (For seeing.. 1: a skunk 2: a wolf, 3: A meteorite tail, amung other believable things.)
"I don't feel like cooking tonight." Great! Do I cook, or fast fetch?

cheer up
smile
what's wrong?
mouse
stop frowning
uncross your arms
weird
having fun in your own world?
and so many more, which everyone has already posted.

Most of the time I'm happy on the inside until someone tells me to cheer up, then I get a REAL frown on my face.

I used to get Smile more than I do nowadays and have always been made fun of for my rigid, military-like gait. Luckily most people who do that now do so while I'm at work. Working for an armored truck service I move fast and aggressive and am told I look like I'm ready to kill someone. I just tell people that it's a calculated security measure designed to keep would be bad guys at bay. I just neglect to tell them that I'm often that way outside of work as well lol.

I also get asked what the matter is, even by people who know what my normal expression is. I've known my roommate since middle school (27 now) and he still can't walk by me watching tv without asking if everything is ok. Sometimes I wanna just reach out and smack him.

Why can't you be like everyone else and not act so weird...
