| I was maced, punched, wrestled to the ground, and arrested during a meltdown at my high school during lunch by two "officers". I went in to one line and didn't care for what was in it, so I moved a couple steps over to see what was in the other line, disliked it even more and returned to my original... |

| Well regardless there is no cure. However I have improved myself significantly buy using my overly analytic mind to be aware of my social interactions. I have personally "taught" myself how to adapt to social situations. I still don't care for them but I can tolerate and even thrive in them now, unl... |

| Or.. you could do one of the two things that ever truly work. Knock them out or ignore them. I suggest the latter of the two personally. All of the drama and what people think of you really doesn't matter. People like that make it matter because it's what the TV tells them to do. It took me a long t... |

| It's good to see that I'm not the only one that sees this stuff happening. I guess on the bright side more people are waking up to how bad it is and is going to be in the next few years. In fact, a Libertarian radio host named Adam Kokesh is holding a peaceful armed and loaded march on Washington D.... |

| I'm currently a Line Leader at FedEx Express (airport). It's only 12 hours a week at $12.25/hr+ apparently awesome benefits but it's my first real job. I would love to get started on YouTube or streaming video games to make some extra income or even one day be able to live off of it. If anything it ... |

When I started I absolutely hated it and every day for two months told myself "I'm going to put my two weeks in" but never did (starting RIGHT before the Christmas season didn't help much either). I was put into Input, the mos... |

The first time the young lady got me a Web Design job with a small company that her friend/boyfriend worked at. I was there for the 3 months they require to cl... |

I just recently build a new gaming PC and the majority of the games I enjoy playing also have superior PC ports. I mostly stick to old school games when all else fails, as the ... |

This is especially important when it comes to new, big named titles where companies will sometimes go on a warpath against those that post game con... |

| I would say yes, but don't think that I'm a horny, nonemotional Aspie. I am definitely not. The reason why I say yes is because I'm a single virgin male who's 27, and there's a lot they don't tell you in sex ed that you need to know, once you mature. Mainly, for a guy in my position, not being sexu... |
