You know...I was just thinking that the other day when walking into the store. I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one.
Rather of buying the bellringer's bell I'd rather just grab the thing and throw it across the parking lot.  |

| I have severely dry skin due to hypothyroidism and since I have a ton of allergies lotions are out of the question. So...I have a humidifier in my apartment, which does seem to help a bit. When my skin is really bad I'll sit in the bathroom with the shower on. You may want to try that with her. |

No.....its 0.999999. However, NTs would say that it is 'one' ...due to the fact that they're rather oblivious to such minor differences. I've found that they're like that with everything, though.
And we're the ones with the disability? Silly NTs.  |

I'm in favor if allowing NTs be a part of our society....even if they are disabled. I'm certain that with proper therapy they'll adjust fine... regardless if they're high functioning or not. Perhaps we can even cure them....  |
