An interesting thread this. I was diagnosed with Apergers in my mid forties. Even before that I was never a big fan of sex with another person, and was in my late twenties before my first almost encounter, which resulted in a particularly stressful meltdown after a first date with suggestions of sex... |

I am currently reading "Lovecraft Country" by Matt Ruff (originally published in 2016), because HBO is doing a ten episode series based on it that just started very recently, with one episode every Saturday night for ten weeks (the second episode just aired). I have always found that any s... |

It's certainly not you. I have had AS all my life (only recently diagnosed), and back in my youth I never ate fish, and still don't, so mercury played no part in my aspergers. My father probably had undiagnosed aspergers, and it does sometimes run in families. However, not one of my siblings is like... |

So, I never considered myself a pedant. Arrogant yes, but pedantic is an adjective I would never have applied to myself. But, after reading the quote below, I am not so sure now.

The ripples I leave behind don't concern me, I am not sure this is a bad thing, but it does cause problems. As for the second type, I am a wreck. I cry at films ... |

I have asperger's for heaven's sake. Asking me to choose just five movies is like asking someone to eat one potato chip. I can't do it!! !! So instead I will list my 5 favorite directors/producers, as that is a far easier task and less likely to cause terminal brain freeze. Joel/Ethan Coen Blake Edw... |
