I wonder if this is why I am who I am

Often avoid violent movies and TV shows to protect their finely tuned nervous system
This is the only criteria that doesn't fit in with me though.
Well i qualify by the test posted before and TBH i enjoy clutter and having a TV on. It helps me out by keeping me distracted. Basically if a rooms not cluttered i tend to obsess over the little details and get freaked out by all the space. Similar for lack of sound. Though when i'm sick i HATE sound in general.

I remember this one autistic girl;
she was nice but weird as hell since she always carried around this pray-mantis puppet - to gym, to school pictures, to the prom.
I tried asking her one day if she'd remove the puppet and she just gave me this demonizing look
She sounds kinda hot actually.

Perhaps this might be more to your liking
Former your ass. I just haven't been around much. Between Amalur/Jak and Daxter HD, work, my new horribly insane doctor instructed diet, stress, that damn virus going around and other forums as well as having too many people to hang with(by my standards) i haven't had as much time. Plus i've mellowed a bit for some reason and don't post as much unless i feel i have something to say.
I've become at least for now a bit more like gantz and alot of others in that i check it out around here every so often and just don't post as much. TBH if i were to post all my purchases in the purchase thread it would be fucking insane at this point. One reason i haven't been posting in there.
But yeah i've been in a sort of recession from alot of internet socializing lately getting too much of it IRL especially with 3 girls to deal with now on top of gaining 2-3 more friends through work minus Bronwyn(the third girl i have met at work and seems to want to be friends) oh and why the hell do all the girls i know have celtic names AND have asbergers AND enjoy anime. but yeah been busy lately.
Just remember this. Once a sankakuan always a sankakuan.

Back to autism

Pretty much everyone agrees that i'm like a hybrid of sheldon and leonard. i have ALOT of sheldons OCD traits but my social skills are closer to leonards.

Sheldon from TBBT is a classic example of Asperger's syndrome. Perhaps the best that has ever existed in the media.
If you ever talk to an asspie, be sure to remind him how similar he is to Sheldon; he'll appreciate it!
Yeah we will at least in some ways.

implying autistic people breed and pass on their genes.
Seriously? Mutations happen, not all of them survive. Just as an Albino may survive in Scandinavia that doesn't mean he'll survive in Africa.
In the same manner a nerd may be able to get all sorts of pussy in Asia, but in the US he just gets shoved in a locker.
Autism exists mainly in cultures with birth rates below replacement value anyway. So good luck making a species out of a subject that even if he does breed lives in an area with bad fertility.
Actually at least those of us with asbergers do perfectly fine socially amongst others who also have it. With normal people not so much however.
