Well, think about it - Socially isolated. Has real issues with noise. Rather clumsy gait. Talks slow and with odd tone of voice. And in the end, it turns out that he has MORE empathy than anyone ever suspected.

Are you saying that we (aspies) have hearts that are 10 and a half sizes too small?

Only until we figure it out. Then once we get it we're like super sized.

I must admit, I'm really averse to Christmas myself.
His only friend is a dog, but I don't think he's very nice to him. :(

The Grinch is a victim of bad press. People judge him for his behavior in the beginning, not his transformation at the end.

No wonder I've always loved the Grinch and find him so very attractive.

If I had to live next to those annoying Whos, I would be a Grinch too.
