Ive been doing karate for 7 years. I am a black belt (i was actually ahead than the average person who got it) but i have noticed something with more autism awareness comes a little thing called autism jokes. alot like ret*d jokes but with autism. i give people shot wen they say ret*d jokes. but these kids started making autism jokes. wen i told em to stop and how i explained to them how i had aspegrer's, not just did they continue, but they were making fun of it TO ME!! ! so i did wat any enradged aspie would do! elbow the kid in the face. and then slap him. he once again didnt get it. ill go the easy way and tell the teacher next time. ill say something like "CAN U TELL ANSON TO STOP MAKING AUTISM JOKES! ITS STARTING TO GET TO ME!" not just will it make an ass of him, but he'll get in trouble.

wen i told my mom of my first "solution" she actually was proud that i elbowed him! i am too! lol

but this s**t has gatta stop! [please do not circumvent the WP word censor, sinsboldy]

What were the jokes? Could you find a way into bending them into NT jokes?

it's a moving target; whomever they can attack with little fear of reprisal. When I was a kid, it was Polish jokes.

Some people have to look down on some one else or how would they feel superior? Their intent is to feel superior by putting someone else down.


Now, don't make this a rage of Polish jokes, Blonde jokes or something else. But lets bring out the Autism jokes and pick them apart until they don't hurt any more!

My brother calls me a ret*d (apparently not realising that autism is not akin to retardation), and once he said, "At least I'm not a ret*d who thinks it's good to have a disease!" so I punched him and called him my worst swearword. Mum, who saw the whole thing, only told me off for the punching and swearing, and didn't even care about what he said. :roll:

there used to be a show on TV called "flipper" which was about a dolphin.

in the intro song, i thought of a funny way to interpret it.

the theme song for flipper goes

"they call him flipper... flipper.. faster than lightning.
no one but he, is smarter than me..
they call him flipper..."etc

that to me was funny as i associated the word "flipper" with stimming.

I got an NT joke.

How many NTs does it take to change a light bulb?
One. That person just holds the light bulb, thinking the world revolves around them.

I just went to Google and typed in "Autism + jokes" and the first association that popped up was "Autism Speaks" . . .
well, I had a good laugh over it! :roll:

...unless the curebee finds a clever way to deceive the lightbulb so that it doesn't realize what's happening... :twisted:

Honestly, if that's the worst your getting, it isn't that bad. I had one kid spit on me in grade 6, everyone always accused me of being gay, and had no real proof of it, but once the cool kid did it, noone would stop. It took till I overpowered the one kid in a fight while his friends were trying to restrain me before they stopped. I got kudos and a suspension from the principal, he said the kid deserved every bit of what he got, but I still have to suspend you. Then I got a reputation for not taking sh**, so people left me alone out of fear. If someone bothered me I simply said back off, and they would. But that incident with beating the crap out of the kid while being restrained wasn't the first time. I also picked up one kid and slammed him into a desk, I also fought the same kid later.

I will say there were better ways of dealing with it, no doubt about that. However, these kids that sit there and harass other kids do it to fill their superiority complex. Simply put them in their place somehow, and repeatedly do it, and they will learn to back off, and then they will move to someone else. If the cycle of making them back off continues for every target, than this person will run out of targets and become an outcast, and have to deal with his/her problems.
