This chirpy, verbose Cockney does have an AS diagnosis. Not all people with AS are the quiet types who don't say or post much.

Okay then, I'll be the cheap imitation aspie who types over there.

I don't know yet officially if I have aspergers, but I do know I'd much rather talk to people on forums than in real life. See, there's this thing called a backspace key, and sometimes I reach it in time to avert a social disaster. And even when I don't make it to backspace, the heavy silence that follows an errant post isn't nearly as painful as that real life silence.

I'm a fake Aspie. :P

Just kidding.

Speaking of fake aspies... why would ANY neurotypical person want to be an aspie? I don't understand why would a person want to limit their social interactions and their interests. I think it would be impossible for an NT to act aspie all the time, just like it's impossible for aspies to act NT for a prolonged period of time. It's a pretty silly thing to do, in my opinion.

Anyways, welcome to the forum!

I see I was misunderstood :lol: How funny was that.

Well my post was maybe bit provocative, sorry for that. I have aspergers if I can trust the online tests, which I scored high, and my own knowledge.

Hi all :)

Hi and welcome.

That was quite an entrance, you managed to raise the hackles on quite a few members within seconds of posting.

It doesn't matter though because it's true... we are all figments of your imagination and this is the twilight zone.
