Does anyone else here think that Tina Fey's character on "30 Rock", Liz Lemon, has serious Aspie traits? I do!

I never actually though of it until I came across this Tumblr post: http://pinkie-shy.tumblr.com/post/14779238029/i-fell-asleep-watching-30-rock, despite the fact that Tina Fey is my favorite person in the world, and Liz Lemon is my all-time hero. Guess I never realized why I connected with her so much!

So, do you guys see it? I'm not saying the character IS an Aspie, but that she has definite traits. If you ever saw the episode with Steve Martin, where Liz thinks she's found the deal of a lifetime with a man who has no interest in sex and no interest in leaving the house...just hanging out together and eating and watching TV, you get it!

:D

Yeah, she definitely has a little Aspie in there. But I might be biased, as Liz Lemon is my power animal.

Or maybe I'm not being biased...

I've only vaguely had the thoughts of her Aspie traits, I was a wee bit too busy concentrating on how awesome she is and how my new goal is to find a woman exactly like her.

Yeah, she's definitely amazing. I just read Tina's "Bossy Pants," and she's very Liz Lemon-ish in real life. Just love her.
