Okay,here's what happened yesterday:

I was at the mall,walking around.I don't know I told y'all this but I have made some Asperger/Autism T-shirts.The one I was wearing that day was:I have Asperger Syndrome!Hear me ROAR!! ! And it has a T-rex under it.

Well,anyways,I saw 2 girls from my old school who made fun of me walking towards me.I didn't think they'd actaully talk to me but they stopped right in front of me and started giggling.I got VERY annoyed.Here's what happened:

Me:Well,you got something you wannah say to me or you just gonnah stand there like a couple of idiots?

Girl #1:We were just looking at your shirt!Don't get your panties in a wad!

Girl #2:Yeah,really!What does your shirt mean anyway?

Me:I am not going to bother explaining it to you because that knowledge might not fit into your pea-sized brain!

They started giggling again and walked off.

I know that they think that they've won,but I feel good about sticking up for myself and telling them off.Usually,I get sad after snapping off at someone,but I don't feel bad about this.

Should I take you off your high horse? I could, but it would be cruel. But I'm cruel. I'm conflicted. I'll come back to you with an answer.

Aspie shirts will be the new craze. People without AS will be getting them to seem cool. Dear god I can see it now.

If Emo is the new goth, Aspie will be the new Emo. What does this mean for Aspie emos???? Do they even exist? DEAR GOD THE VERY THOUGHT HURTS TO IMAGINE!

I'd like to make up my own Aspie T-Shirt. It would have a Routemaster with a Side-Advert that says "I am Aspie!" Under the Bus, it would say, "My Cockney Spirit enables me navigate the Darkness of Life!"

Well,I didn't wear that shirt to seem "cool".I believe that "cool" has to do with the inner you not your outward appearance.I did it because I'm proud of myself.Not the arragont kind of proud,but the kind of proud where you know who you are.I don't think that I should be defined by my AS but it's a part of me and I'm proud of that.

Now that I would love to see, feel free to post pictures of your t-shirts and if you feel like selling them count me in :D

I hate to burst your bubble but all three of those things are so stigmatized that they have become like swear words, maybe that's what you were implying though. If only I could "read between the lines".

That's funny Space Case! You should be proud!


I want a shirt that says:

"I have Asperger's Syndrome. I am someone who will rattle the cages."

and then it has a bat underneath that sentence.

I suppose that is a good thing to be proud of, quite a few people these days can't stick up for themselfs or too scared.
