That's cool! :)



That freaked me out. People thinking you're autistic. Made me wonder what was I doing wrong that made me come off as abnormal and they don't even tell you when you ask. And my mother says people would never guess I have a disability and know I'm different.

I'm looking for a replacement program for this very reason. I miss watching the little boxes flashing and moving.

You know your autistic (if not VERY autistic) when....

You feel that the world is going to end, or you may even die, once someone stop's posting in your beloved topic on this forums...even if it's for a short while.

You have terrable difficulites with some mental fuctionings (with me, this include's even some really SERIUS mental fuctionings...such as the way the brain procives 'cuteness'. why else would I be called the cutenessmastler here? of course...I could joined as kmastler, too...k for kawaii, or kirby, who i'm like in love with...almost).

The thought of losing your pet dog or cat is even scarier for you than it would be for anyone else. :cry: It could even be almost as scary as losing someone even CLOSER....

You feel that you'd die the moment you pet does, or, soon afterwards.

You feel your the only one that know's how this world really work's or SHOULD really work.

You actually see sex for what it is-the absolutly desgusting intersection of 2...I won't say whats. (ever come to concider it, hmmn? :? not trying to offend anyone, but...)

You just can't see how a 'girly' person could like something soo...gross (sound's like me).

You don't see why some things are right and some things are wrong...confusion of right and wrong.

You probably prefer animals over humans..sometimes to the point that you would go vegetarian (like me...though it's not like i prefer animals over humans....).

Serius autisum-very late talker. And, maybe even very late walker? (i wouldn't know)

You hate change. And, possably, growing up.

Your lucky to be alive if you are not on meds (depending on the condition).

Some other stuff, too....yeah

I wish people around me (who don't know of my claim to be on the spectrum) would tell me that they think I am.

...when you think 'sack the quarterback' is a football player, not a football term. Sadly, that's what I thought when I was in 4th grade. :P

when you read this entire thread (8 pages in under a minute) and relate to all of it.

When you bump this thread that is close to a year old.

You know you're autistic, when you look at old pictures, and you always have your arms down at the sides of your torso.

When you've just spent ten minutes outside watching an icicle grow.

I've also spent some time watching the defrag screen. Last time I did it (some time in Summer - 81 days ago according to Properties) I noticed a repeating pattern in the bad areas that looked like there was a big scratch on the disc.

This is a bit like the 'You might be an Aspie' thread, without perhaps as much emphasis on humour.

I can go into quite long lectures, even in response to an initial "How are you/"

If I get stuck with a Killer Sudoku (they don't include ANY individual cell numbers in the puzzle), I will do it over and over until I solve it.

For those who miss the little blocks on the most recent versions of Windows, I recommend Auslogics BoostSpeed

I REALLY love to sit and watch those little blocks, it's SO relaxing for me.
