| I can honestly say I had more optimism before realizing my brain chemistry. The limitations that come from me knowing i have autism have, in a strange way, brought some relief. While others may continue to lie to be about what I might be capable of if only I did *fill in the blank with whatever is s... |

| It's just a way of letting other people know they're available. It only bothers me when the person is lying about their broken-up status to play some mindgame with their partner. I'm not a fan of Jr High school games. My biggest Facebook annoyance is being un-friended for seemingly no reason, especi... |

The sound of other people chewing.
The sound of people kissing on TV shows and movies.
Getting cut in front of or skipped over when I'm next in line at a store.
Bitchy/authoritive tones from others.
Getting blamed for something I have not done wrong. |

| If the side effects aren't severe, I would take a pill that makes me more socially acceptable. If that means a total elimination of my autistic traits, so be it. The hatred I have received from the human race has permanently damaged me and I'd love to be someone quite different than what I am. |

| I've always sounded different from others. I had a friend in college comment on my "pseudo-British" accent. Had someone tell me once I sounded like a "rich boy". The local accent never appealed to me, but I've become better at imitating it. |

Anyway, congratulations.
For me, getting an official diagnosis would simply verify what I believe I am, and give reasons to my eccentric behaviours. |

Didn't say or suggest that at all. I pointed out that he pronounces some of his "r"'s as "w"s. That is not a characteristic trait of properly spoken English in either Britain or America. |
