Hi. I have noticed myself in the mirror as I talk, my lower lip sometimes slants to the right. Is this normal for you aspies?

No, I think that has to do with partial paralysis of the facial muscles. It sometimes happens to people who've had mild strokes.

Its nothing to worry about, all peoples faces are asymmetrical, or slightly different from the right and left sides.
I would only worry if your head looked like Gumby's head

What is Gumby supposed to be, anyway? Pokey is a horse, obviously. But is Gumby supposed to be a human?

That sounds like something that's distinctly you, not related to Aspergers.

Aspergers is neurological and doesn't affect physical features.
