Sorry, I thought it was funny because I really don't know where to look when talking to people. Just trying to convey my anxiety in cartoon form I guess.

i think it's funny because the aspie doesnt understand a term like "keep an eye on your little brother." i had a problem with it, but i'm learning and getting the hang of it. and no, cutting corners doesnt mean stabbing the space where the walls collide with a knife, lol.

Pretty much what I thought, too.

That really depends on the aspie. I never had much problems with figures of speech, not even as a child. Quite a few were self-explanatory, and others needed an explanation, but I didn't take them literally, I understood they were sayings and that I needed them explained.

I found it funny :P My interpretation being that when talking to someone I am constantly trying to decide where my eyes should go, regarding when I should be giving them eye contact and when I should look away, getting really confused to the point my thoughts yell 'where the f**k should I put my eyes?!' and like the cartoon, a comedy take on the solution would be to just take my eyes out and put them on the table so I can stop thinking about where to put my eyes.

This was how i first interpreted it, and I know that feeling all too well. I found it pretty funny!
