List Interests

Post Reply New Topic

I have read that one thing Aspergers have is interests. This is interesting because I have had some good interests. I will list them.

Willard Fillmore
Heavyweight boxing champions
The planets of the solar system
Dinosaurs
Collecting flora and fauna

Tell us more about Willard Fillmore
Google and Wikipedia turns up nothing so a link would be nice.

My interests are/were:

Computers, especially software, especially programming
Japan, especially anime, especially Sailor Moon (not the north american version, I think it sucked!)
Astronomy, nothing in particular

Hum... the two of you have very similar names, how curious *raised eyebrows*

BTW, I believe Renagade is onto you I'd watch your step

1. collecting (this is general and has spanned many topics/objects)
2. art
3. poetry
4. Psychology (more specifically: Abnormal Psychology, and now additionally Biopsychology, Neuropsychology, and Neuroscience)
5. some paleoanthropology
6. many other little interests too numerous to mention, many subcategories under "collecting"

*Edited a few minuts ago. Can't believe I left out a few vital interests. I guess it goes to show how infrequently these have been visited.

In no order other than the order that they appear in:

Cats
Reading really bad fiction
Reading really good fiction
Reading stuff people I know or am online friends with wrote
Reading nonfiction- but usually only if it has something to do with psychology
Psychology
Sarcasm
Humor
Doing stand-up (OK, so I did it once but I'm gonna do it again- hopefully next Monday!)
LJ/Myspace/Facebook/being a loser
DeviantArt
Riddles
Confusing people
Breaking Social norms
Online self-tests
Using my tenacious command of the English language to dodge issues, no matter how serious or important they be (note: I'm not saying that's a good thing)
Neologisms
Pessimism (especially about relationships- once you've taken social psychology, no amount of positive psychology can take it back)
Again, refusing to take things seroiusly
Being repetitive
Bad speling
Er, bd spelling
bad spilling
ASDFDFSGDDSHHDG

My interests:

Drawing
Figure skating
Foreign Languages
Korea
Collecting old things from 1800 pre 1900 era like Stamps, old letters and postcards

My interests...

Star Trek, Star Trek, etc

I also enjoy reading/writing, science ficition, fantasy, scientific matters, philosophical matters, stuff of that ilk.

GA

Ah, yes. I'd forgotten musicals and Frank Sinatra, which sorta blended into one another.

Oh, and of course Garfield.

Speaking of music, I like The Corrs and celtic music, also some movie soundtracks, and various other bands.

GA

Railroad tunnels and to a lesser extent, railroads in general.

Classic videogame and computer systems (I just bought a commodore 64 and the ultra awesome datasette, along with a more mundane 5.25" 1541 floppy drive) I've found a method to create a serial connection a PC to access C64 software availible online, and give a C64 hard drive and CD/DVD access. If anybody has a colecovision, intellivision, atari 8 bit computer, or Apple IIgs they want to get rid of, we need to talk.

Economics and economic theory.

Car repair and performance modification

So do Neurotypicals, although they for the most part have much broader and less obessive interests than us.

My interests, I'm in the process of getting some new interests right now. Currently I would say Internet Surfing, Linux Operating Systems, Classical (especially Baroque Music) and Bike Riding.
