Tiffany from Hellraiser 2 fits the diagnosis of Hollywood autism quite well.
SPOILER: Except that Hollywood autists usually save the day in some way with their superpowers and, in any case, don't summon any Cenobites at all. |

Some available as MP3, others only available as Ogg Vorbis - if someone has problems with playing Ogg Vorbis files, I can provide temporary MP3 download links. ... |

| Try the Trappistes Rochefort 10 (Abbey quadruple) EXCELLENT!! !! Too bad they don't sell Rochefort 10 at the liqour store here. One bar does sell Rochefort 10, so I've been able to taste that as well, and it is amazing. However, it's something like 9 euros a pint and I'm on a student budget, so I p... |

| Experience is required, but being the people we are, I believe we also need active, conscious observation and perhaps a bit of underlying theory. "Funny" is the easiest to theorize. Laughter is basically our brains' way of saying "ERROR: Logical discrepancy". We laugh at the unexpected. We laugh at ... |

| By all means, keep getting defeated in a battle that doesn't exist, if that's what you want. Meanwhile, I'll be focusing on something else. Been reading sosuave.com? So have I. Ok, a lot of it is total BS that's just about as healthy for men as Cosmopolitan is for women, but on the other hand, a lot... |

| Music is the most mathematical of all art forms, so it's not really that surprising if it comes naturally to an aspie. Personal history: playing around with various types of electronic music for a bit over a decade, being serious about it for perhaps five years. Started with Protracker on my old Ami... |

| "Similar music to Fennesz" radio on last.fm. Been listening it to for a couple of days now during mornings before going to school and other periods when I don't have the time or attention to listen to a whole album's worth of anything. Lots of excellent sounds from Lightning Bolt to M83. |

| And, I'm repeating myself, but again, I don't see why it wouldn't be possible to assume all the positive qualities of the "bad guy" without incorporating any of the negative ones. If it weren't possible, then most, if not all, of my friends would be single. Ok, sure. AS is going to make it more diff... |

I haven't. Since I haven't even tried. And that's one of the first problems I need to fix, right? |

| The thing about jerks is that they're active, outwards, and exhibit a certain kind of devil-may-care attitude. That's what I believe women are actually attracted to. And you can have that without being a prick. On a related note, upon re-reading the node on Everything2, I decided to start the Six Re... |

| I'm digging up this old thing just because coming across this thread happened to coincide with having just spend a good amount of time thinking about the issue. (Don't know if there's a more recent thread about this.) The way I see it is that "Just be yourself" and "Be yourself" are two completely d... |
