Dilbert Interviews an Aspie...

Post Reply New Topic

DILBERT: Wow! You have three masters degrees and a PHD!

ASPIE: Yes. It’s all very impressive, but, interestingly, I have no common sense whatsoever.

DILBERT: That’s not the sort of thing you should say during an interview.

ASPIE: I don’t see why not.



( ...this is soooooo exactly like me when i interview, I have the comic strip on my fridge!)


p.s. I spent an hour searching the web for this strip and finally found it, but the thing won't let me copy and paste it here, so I just put the text. It's from 27 Aug. 2003

Do you have the url?

I think dilbert.com should do it. It has a tremendous free archive of all the comic strips, Sunday full color included. It is guaranteed to make you

Here, I found a version I could post.



Dilbert.com's archive only goes back a month, kindofbluenote.

Thanks for posting the strip, SolaCatella! I copied it to pictures...

On a related note, do you think Dilbert himself could be an aspie? I know everybody sees themselves and their co-workers in the Dilbert comics, but I really do identify very strongly with Dilbert.

Here is a real, from my own life, aspie double play:

One of my superiors says to me that he is impressed with my organizational skills re: my always present clipboard.
I tell him that I am not all that well organized, it is simply that without a list I'd forget everything.

If Pointy-Haired Boss is Dilbert, then, tonight, the apocalypse shall occur.
