| Nothing, provided that you both get clean. Little things like these don't bother me. It doesn't harm anybody. |

| Indeed. They can chew their nails, tap their fingers and twirl their hair. It's not to the degree that many autistics stim, but it still counts as self-stimulatory behaviour. |

| I haven't even fully sat through the movie yet, so I can't really say. I only wish I would stop having to hear about it constantly. I get that this will be a lot of people's first impressions of autism, and that's a pretty important thing. But it gets so tedious hearing about this movie and even bei... |

| I don't really have much confusion with metaphors, figures of speech and hyperbolic language. Usually I can get the gist of what people are saying by familiarity with these phrases and idioms, and I can also often pick it out by the way they say it. I tend to pick up on tone quite well. Probably not... |

So it's not like a diagnosis changes us into radically different people. We just become more aware of ourselves. If anything, I think that's something that should... |
