I hate English too. Not because I don't get it, but because I have incredible linguistic skills for my age, and I feel that besides knowing how to write a paper, that's all I need. Reading and comprehending stupid novels is useless to me.

jus4u76, you shouldn't post more than one thread with the same topic. If you don't get any replies, that means no one has anything to say. Posting it again is not going to help its just going to make people angry.
How could anyone here get mad at an aspie for being annoying?

Eh... I got mad at a guy for having squeaky shoes once. We're easily annoyed sometimes.

This is not a surprise.

The fact that you are failing, if that is indeed true, is also not a surprise. The last thing you need to do in finals week is spam on a message board every day and night.

If you aren't a troll and have a lot of psychiatric problems, you need to stop spending your time here.

You may want to go get a second opinion about your doctor's diagnosis. Your sensory disruptions, communications disorder and other issues may not be Asperger Syndrome, but Schizophrenia.


"DISORGANIZED SCHIZOPHRENIA"

Disorganized schizophrenia is a subtype of schizophrenia as defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, DSM-IV code 295.10[1]. This type is characterized by prominent disorganized behavior and speech (see formal thought disorder) including word salad, and flat or inappropriate emotion and affect.

Wikipedia, Disorganized Schizophrenia

"COGNITIVE SLIPPAGE"

Cognitive slippage is a symptom of several psychiatric diseases and mental disorders associated with cognition and formal thought disorders. It is manifested in patterns of speech, where categories and lists become overly broad as concepts unrelated at first glance become related through tangential connections. An example of cognitive slippage might be as follows: "List some types of cars. Let's see, there's Ford, Chevrolet, Toyota, Japan, Rising Sun, Hiroshima, Atomic Bomb, Enola Gay, oh and Miata." (Schutz, 2006)

The inclusion of extraneous items in the listing is evidence of the cognitive slippage. While the concepts such as Toyota, Japan, Rising Sun, etc. are all related, the relation is no longer defined by the initial prompt. The cognitive slippage, however, causes the inability to disregard these extraneous connections and results in patterns of speech and association as seen here. In contrast, another disorder of speech, word salad is even more disorganized than the loose associations of cognitive slippage. Cognitive slippage is one of the positive symptoms of schizophrenia, a psychiatric illness that affects every aspect of a patient's life.

Wikipedia, Cognitive Slippage

"THOUGHT DISORDER"

In psychiatry, thought disorder or formal thought disorder is a term used to describe a pattern of disordered language use that is presumed to reflect disordered thinking. It is usually considered a symptom of psychotic mental illness, although it occasionally appears in other conditions.

It describes a persistent underlying disturbance to conscious thought and is classified largely by its effects on speech and writing. Affected persons may show pressure of speech (speaking incessantly and quickly), derailment or flight of ideas (switching topic mid-sentence or inappropriately), thought blocking, rhyming, punning, or 'word salad' when individual words may be intact but speech is incoherent.

Eugen Bleuler, who named schizophrenia, held that its defining characteristic was a disorder of the thinking process.[1] However, the delusions and hallucinations of psychosis could also be considered as disorders of thought, but that the term formal thought disorder applies specifically to the presumed disruption in the flow of conscious verbal thought that is inferred from spoken language. This is typically what is referred to when the strictly less accurate, more commonly used but abbreviated term, 'thought disorder', is used.

I don't think you need to worry too much about finishing your college degree. Especially if you can't answer that question yourself.

I don't want to encourage the easy-way-out, but 6 books in one night. Ouch. Good luck.

Try wiki-ing every one of them. You can get an effective plot synopsis and very likely some cursory philosophical points of each work that way. You better work fast though. Good luck.
