Why the hell not?

I know a guy with two hooks for arms thats a CRAZY flirt and knows every painful pun there is about it . ( And hes already married to a hottie)

Guys on crutches work the sympathy angle.

So come on lets all put our rewired misunderstood genuis minds to it and think of an icebreaker.
" Hi I'm trying to spread Aspergers Awareness. Whats your name? Great how much do you know about aspergers? Yeah I know its a silly name but actually . . . ..


Step up gentlemen give me your best.
I may even try them. At least i would do it just to have a story to comew back here with. :D

One time (about fifteen years ago), a guy whom I had met once before who had already told me he had Tourette's, said something like "Because I have no impulse control, I'm going to ask you out." Then he gave me his phone number.
But I was too shy to call him.

"Hey cutie, still wasting time on NTs? Better try something else. Like me." <- I know it's lousy, but that's what came into mind looking at the phrase "pickup line" :)

"Hi. My code's 299.80. What's yours?" <- actually used at a psychiatry conference; though it didn't work out as a relationship (another str8 chick :roll: ), we're still good friends. (She responded "314.00 - but I think yours is cooler." Go ADDers! :))

Though I prefer to read pickup lines (e.g. on t-shirts)...

While we're at it, how about "Hi there! I'm married and have clamidya, but how are YOU Doing?"

I think your idea is a good one. Maybe it might even be better if, instead of beginning with a statement that projects a subtle sense of superiority (from I know about something you probably don't), you began by saying something that gives the other person a feeling of importance? How about . . .

"Hi, I would be interested in your opinion about a syndrome most people aren't aware of yet and, with your help, you could help people like me and others in society by increasing this much needed awareness."

Hopefully that would allow the other person to stay within a comfort level from this approach. Plus, most NTs value socially popular behavior (especially when they can donate in a non-financial way) and they like people who think they might have some intelligence. :lol:

I cannot express to you how unfunny this is. I am the person who has to pick up the phone and tell people they have chlamydia or gonorrhea. Yes, sometimes they are married!! !!
On a lighter note, how about this. "Gee, this noise is exacerbating my sensory processing disorder. How about we each go to our respective homes and email each other obsessively?"
