YMBAAI...you're more annoyed by the color of your school bus than the kids in it...

if you know that there are different shades of School Bus Yellow.

You wouldn't believe all the funny looks I got in Tescos yesterday - Everybody else was wearing shorts and T-shirts (and, in some cases, flip-flops.... it was a very hot day you see, anyway), and I had a sweatshirt and a coat on. I don't normally notice anybody looking at me when out and about, but it was somewhat difficult to miss, even for me. I have actually been stopped in the street a couple of times with the question "are you warm enough, mate?" in the past in similar circumstances..... "No - I have the metabolism of a skink... happy now?"

Hehehe... I used to refuse to call it a "yellow" school bus. I also once got in trouble in 10th grade for telling a teacher that our writing utensils were certainly not "yellow" No. 2 pencils - because they were orange!

If you play a song multiple times in a row.

That's not very AS sounding to me. I can't stand hearing the same song more than twice in a row. My brother can enjoy something like that, and he's not AS.

actually, aren't they more maize colored?

If you are trying to find a way to incorporate Boolean logic into your sentences to express yourself better.

have you read cj cherryh's series defender/inheritor etc? her characters' language requires calculating appropriate numbers for certain meanings.

If you burst out with some strange sentence.

Ack, me too. Though I don't usually think it's strange, everyone else seems to.

I surprised everyone when I suddenly questioned the production of condensed milk while they were on about something else.

...When people you've never even seen before in your life come up to you and call you by your whole name (like when people talk to someone famouse) and start asking questions, because your a school legend by your weirdness.

...You can go into an almost trance-like state and lose all sense of time, looking at a pattern.

...You know the species of your pets by there latin name.

...although technically a latin name is scientific name because they come from greek aswell as latin.

If you try to create your own language.
