| I didn't do a damn thing to deserve to be made fun of, and I will never forgive any of them. You know, even the mentally ret*d kids were making fun of me. Forget all of them. Yes, I insulted people, but I was only fighting back. Nobody deserves to be made fun of...Nobody brings it upon themselves. |

| The only nightclubs I go to are the ones at Pleasure Island at Walt Disney World. They have a club there called 8Trax that plays 70s and 80s music. It's awesome for dancing and also for learning social skills, although that part isn't always so awesome. I learned the hard way that people need their ... |

| I often-times stutter myself. People get annoyed by it. Occasionally they'll tell me "Spit it out". They didn't understand. Sometimes I just don't have the ability to speak properly. It'll happen when I'm under severe pressure or intense anger. Occasionally I'll stutter when I'm talking to a woman I... |

| Well, Dan Aykroyd has already been mentioned. I heard that Steven Spielberg might have it also. I've never been able to find concrete proof of that, though. It would be nice to know, though, considering he's one of my all-time favorite directors. |

| My obsession was, and still is, the 80s. I own many 80s movies on both DVD and VHS. I have lots of 80s CDs (both bought and home-made). I watch reality programs that prominently feature 80s stars ("Celebrity Fit Club", "Rock Of Love", "Flavor Of Love", "The Surreal Life", the occasional episode of "... |

| The drawings I always make are squares. I start off with a line in the center. I then take a downward turn, then a parallel line, then an upturn, and I repeat the process over and over again. It works especially well when drawn on top of Pizza Hut boxes. |

| Hello. I've tried joining this website several times, but I've always been afraid to take the plunge. How can I put this? I have an image in my mind of what a person with Aspergers' is like and that image comes from myself. I'm ashamed of what I look like and of my disability. I've always preferred ... |
