My sister is an undiagnosed Aspie.

She refuses to get tested because she believes there is no such thing as AS.

My family is very patriotic except for me. They're die hard Canadians and I'm a modern day incarnation of one of my male British ancestors. I say male because of my gender issues. I think it's quite cool how traits pop up every so many generations. My mum used to give me a really hard time about it. That's part of the reason that I've moved out at the age of 32. I had this plan that I was going to live with them forever, look after my parents and buy their house when they passed away. That plan was shattered by intolerance for that one difference of mine that was still alive and well in 2006. Oh well. I'm better off living on my own.

My mom AND my sister both believe
there is no such thing as a mistake.

Talking either of them, or both of them down, doesn't work
because anything said just bounces off of them.

My Great-uncle helped design the arm/hand of King Kong for the original movie.

My Grandmom graduated from the same high school that I did.

The ship my Grandpop served on during WWII survived the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
