I think its the
Arab Society for the Protection of IntEllectual property...

no, but really, it is short for Asperger's Syndrome

If you have access to the internet, you should be able to find something like this without to ask it on a forum. You know what Wikipedia is right? If you input "Aspie," it redirects to Asperger's Syndrome. Ditto for results from google.

I think Laine Holliday Willey made it up. I first saw it in Pretending to be Normal.
