You and my daughter were the only ones from the 'demographic' that responded. You and her were the ones with the LEAST amount of 'response'. So, this is NOT a valid post/pole!!

I'm OUTTA here!! Have a good life!

I'm going to have a good time with my friends now! I'll talk to you all tomorrow.

What you have just written is giving me the reaction of "ugh" because I am getting the impression you lack reading comprehension. Why don't you add a "durr" and a "George" in there as well.


OK Nik - "ugh" all you want. The point is, you have a very convoluted writing style. As has been written several times in this thread, if you have something to say, just say it. I think you'll learn - as you "age" - that people really don't care to decipher posts that seem to go around in circles without saying anything.

hence the emo posters because if people take the time to decipher his message and find the "hidden agenda" he has their attention... Emos love attention

Important points highlighted for those that do not wish or not able to digest the entire article:

...it is characterized by difficulties in social interaction and restricted, stereotyped patterns of behavior and interests. ... atypical use of language are frequently reported.

Researchers and people with AS have advocated a shift in attitudes toward the view that AS is a difference, rather than a disability that must be treated or cured.

Intense preoccupation with a narrow subject, one-sided verbosity, restricted prosody, and physical clumsiness are typical of the condition

The lack of demonstrated empathy is possibly the most dysfunctional aspect of Asperger syndrome.

...people with AS are not usually withdrawn around others; they approach others, even if awkwardly, for example by engaging in a one-sided, long-winded speech about a favorite topic while being oblivious to the listener's feelings or reactions,...

This failure to react appropriately to social interaction may appear as disregard for other people's feelings, and may come across as insensitive.[5] The cognitive ability of children with AS often lets them articulate social norms in a laboratory context,[1] where they may be able to show a theoretical understanding of other people’s emotions; they typically have difficulty acting on this knowledge in fluid, real-life situations

People with Asperger syndrome often display behavior, interests, and activities that are restricted and repetitive and are sometimes abnormally intense or focused. ...Although these special interests may change from time to time, they typically become more unusual and narrowly focused, and often dominate social interaction

Abnormalities include verbosity; abrupt transitions; literal interpretations and miscomprehension of nuance; use of metaphor meaningful only to the speaker; auditory perception deficits; unusually pedantic, formal or idiosyncratic speech;...

Speech may convey a sense of incoherence; the conversational style often includes monologues about topics that bore the listener, fails to provide context for comments, or fails to suppress internal thoughts. Individuals with AS may fail to monitor whether the listener is interested or engaged in the conversation. The speaker's conclusion or point may never be made, and attempts by the listener to elaborate on the speech's content or logic, or to shift to related topics, are often unsuccessful.

Children with AS may have an unusually sophisticated vocabulary at a young age and have been colloquially called "little professors", but have difficulty understanding figurative language and tend to use language literally.[1] Children with AS appear to have particular weaknesses in areas of nonliteral language that include humor, irony, and teasing.

Individuals with AS often have excellent auditory and visual perception.[20] Children with ASD often demonstrate enhanced perception of small changes in patterns such as arrangements of objects or well-known images; typically this is domain-specific and involves processing of fine-grained features.[21] Conversely, compared to individuals with HFA, individuals with AS have deficits in some tasks involving visual-spatial perception, auditory perception, or visual memory.

Delayed or mistaken diagnosis can be traumatic for individuals and families; for example, misdiagnosis can lead to medications that worsen behavior. (at the age of 12 I was incorrectly diagnosed with Schizoeffective disorder and forcefully medicated for it)

There is some evidence that as many as 20% of children with AS "grow out" of it, and fail to meet the diagnostic criteria as adults.

Although social impairment is lifelong, outcome is generally more positive than with individuals with lower functioning autism spectrum disorders; for example, ASD symptoms are more likely to diminish with time

Simon Baron-Cohen has argued that AS and high-functioning autism are different cognitive styles, not disabilities, and that a diagnosis of AS/HFA should not be received as a family tragedy, but as interesting information, such as learning that a child is left-handed. According to Baron-Cohen, "people with AS/HFA might not necessarily be disabled in an environment in which an exact mind, attracted to detecting small details, is an advantage." Tony Attwood argues, "the unusual profile of abilities that we define as Asperger's syndrome has probably been an important and valuable characteristic of our species throughout evolution.

Now you know. Please do not interpret this as a self-victimization, excuse, plea for help, or cry for attention. It's information you probably did not have, use it to inform yourself.
I was diagnosed at 17 and since have been quite fully aware of everything I do, convolutions and all.

As an aside, look up the current non-musical definition of "emo" if you have to. You will find it is in stark contrast to myself.

At the same time, use of the term "emo" expanded beyond the musical genre, which added to the confusion surrounding the term. The word "emo" became associated with open displays of strong emotion.

If anything I speak robotically, as people have been saying since I was a child. I rarely express emotion. You can see now how incredibly misguided the humor in this thread has become, and how lost it is on a person such as myself.

Ok sure, why not, for the new people; here is a fun thread from 2004 to look back on.

ah, the ol' "i has a syndrome" defense, aka Rob/Ca$h/Chicane acting like a tool and blaming it on ADD.

from your profile:
"Answering questions about life, while being confused about my own."
"Who, who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask. "

sounds pretty emo to me - i can picture you putting on your eyeliner and crying as you cut yourself.

The old "compare my new nemesis to my old one because I'm lonely" routine, acting like a jerk and blaming it on other people.

Never out of character, I give you the serious answer.

The first is an attempt at irony using my own brand of humor that you can not possibly comprehend.
The second is a quote from a movie quote thread on my second favorite forum, the purpose of my using was merely to attract attention to a minor change, which you bit into hook line and sinker.
Proof: http://www.halflife2.net/forums/show...0&postcount=32
The quote I posted in that thread was "Yes Miss Daisy, I be honkin" from Driving Miss Daisy because it is one of the best ****ing things to be said of all time.

Now, once again I have shown how incredibly misguided you are, and as usual will probably receive no recognition for it, but suspect I will be frowned upon by the people who enjoy your very stale personality.

Good day,



BLANDshark.



HAHA BLAND rhymes with LAND and your name is LANDshark. It's true to me which also makes it hilarious.

HAHA, I laugh in your general direction and at your expense, the act of which is also funny to me, but probably to no one else, but I don't care but it's still funny to me.

[NikFu S.]

By the way, the purpose of the poll was to find out how many assholes don't want me to post in the forum.

The answer is 4.

The question remains, did you really want to know.

This quote should be "I fart in your general direction...", should it not?

From the French movie Cyrano de Bergerac?

Non?

[NikFu S.]

It should, if I were to be directly quoting it, but I used it in an altered context that suited my purposes.

Oh wait, I see a rolleyes. Perhaps I missed the subtle nuance of humor.

Good show.

I'm 20. You can look it up on my user profile. I was a teenager a year ago. I know how it feels.

Now, that joke you just posted was lame. This is an internet forum. Insulting other people based on their username is not mature, it's childish. Period. It doesn't take a 70 year old to figure that out.

I tried to read the previous pages of this thread and I just got too confused to follow it all. I think the overwhelming point is that if you want people to listen to you, acting civilly is the way to get it done. That's it, there's nothing to argue about.

yesterday brought me chuckles... today... a mild lol... This is getting LAME. nikfus, stop trying to make a point about the pointless.
