I don't know if there's anything fishy about it but there sure is a lot cheesy and eggy and milky about it. The whole thing looks like a plot cooked up by The American Dairy Association. I could tell by the name of the link it wasn't worth looking at. I am very lactose intolerant, and I've gotten b...

I'm so tired of the, "Whoa is me, I have a difficult autistic child", articles. So, I posted a comment. I think whenever articles like this are published we should add comments asking for better profiles of what the spectrum looks like as well as even writing letters to the editors.

I'm left handed. I was diagnosed almost a year ago. I have a grandfather who is left-handed but he is not the one who I think also had Asperger's. I can do a lot of other things including writing with my right hand but my right-hand writing isn't as legible as my left-hand writing.

What does this have to do with guns? Rhetorical question, don't answer that. It has to do with aspiebostonian's comments about the "ignorant, gun-loving public." This can be read many ways, but the usual way is to equate liking firearms with ignorance. There was no need in her post to say anything ...

I would eat a vegan diet if it weren't for the fact that I don't exclude honey. I don't eat a lot of it, but I don't exclude it, either. If anyone wants to ask why I don't know what to say except maybe I can't empathize with bees. But seriously, I can also just say I am not perfect, either, if that ...

I'm quite comfortable with my gender, but I feel sometimes I get boxed out of wearing things because my favorite clothing vendor often won't make certain kinds of shoes like oxfords or wingtips that I would love to wear. I like wearing ballet flats, and wedges, and so on, but sometimes I like a good...

I'm new and cannot quote the IRL, but the Godzilla face palm made my day! I'm glad to hear that. Not sure if the page is gone or not, but suddenly when I visit it, I'm redirected to the Facebook homepage for some reason. Is the page still there for anyone else, or is it just me?[/quote] I haven't t...

I hope that the mother presses charges.I'm not so much worried about myself physically(6'1 at 290 lbs built like tank) but the idea that a mob would attack a 14 year old kid because he has AS is maddening.The part is that this story wasnt even the worst sentiment expressed on the same webpage.

I also thought the males had it easier, so maybe I am as bad as they are in being gender biased. I think the men find women because they might not want to take care of a lot of things they think they can get women to take care of, though that wasn't true in my own household because my Dad was willin...

What does this have to do with guns? Rhetorical question, don't answer that. Perhaps the person who was trying to make this about people in response to your post mentioned the word guns and that set off someone who has a thing for guns. As someone who has tried to disclose my diagnosis and educate ...
