"You sure are quiet!"

"You're really weird."

"Why do you dress like that?"

"What is Asperger Syndrome?"

Adults can ask some pretty dumb questions, too. When people ask me why I almost always wear my old jeans and t-shirts (gasp! at "my age") I just say: because it's comfortable. And walk off. Life's too short.

I wear black mocassins to school every day, and there's always a few people who call them water shoes and laugh at me. It always struck me as so odd that people were paying attention and laughing at me because of my shoes. I never said anything to them, although one of the kids looked like he bought his clothes from Goodwill. I probably would have been beaten up if I said that, though.

I have been asked before "Why are you so precise?" but I can't exactly remember how I responded.

The other day when I went into town after school to get my glasses fixed,, a girl behind me sarcastically said "Ohh, I love your bag" and "It's really sexy" (I didn't know whether she mentioned my backpack, or a tiny bag from an optician) and the pushed me from behind on my backpack. I just walked off and ignored it.

Heh, I got asked how I was feeling about my newly-discovered asparagus syndrome yesterday. I made some weak pun like, "not bad, just vegging out".

If anyone ever asks why you don't speak, say this 'Those who speak much think little. Those who think much, speak little'

Some people often ask you questions that the answers are none of their business, becuase they want an opportunity to be rude/sarcastic. That's just so illogical - who are they meant to be impressing?

A fun thing that I could have told him, was

"I would have dressed-up, but I knew that I was going to run into you, so I didn't." :lol:
