...if your brain decides to take a leave when ever you are asked to do an unpleasant task.
...You gave up on ever convincing people that you are not odd ages ago. You now just live your life and to hell with anyone who thinks it strange.
...you take apart computers or other electronics for fun. 10 additional points if you started doing this before you were five years old.
...if you consider your driving an insurance risk
...if you forgot how to divide every summer break in school
...if your neighbors come to your door needing help with their computer at all hours of the night
...if you help them with their computer problems at all hours of the night
...if you're in class and everybody wants to sit by you for help with thier work but you can't get your own work done in time to save your life
...if you've ever frequented a fast food resturant and the people there ask you if "you want the usual?"
Slight adjustment to the next one.
