Post Reply New Topic

Yes.

Do you play any sports or used to play sports?

took track last year, will do so again this year. i liked baseball a bit but never joined actual teams.

do you like playing mancala?

I know I've played it, but it's been too long ago to give an opinion. Board game you most hate?

I hate all games that will have winners and losers at the end of the game. I remember there was one board game in which you eliminate other players' pieces until only one player is left. I hated that.

Do you like chilli chocolate?

lolnope.

do you want to craft a dream fortress?

ABSOLUTELY!

What color is yr hair and where do you get your news?

jet black, and wherever.

one thing you learned today?

I'm reading 'The Complete Guide to Aspergers' Syndrome' at the moment, so fegging heaps! So much so that I'm struggling to come up with a single thing.
I did see a direct correlation between my 'special interests' and a release of anxiety yesterday. This is a bit lengthy so bear with me:

I had my guitar serviced and walked down the street to pick it up. Walking back home, in the space of 5 minutes I:

-Was next to a truck as it released its' air brakes
-Got stuck at a level crossing while the boomgates were down, next to the bell thing making a hell of a racket
-A bit dazed, was walking down the street strumming the guitar when a car drove right up behind me and the driver laid on the horn (my fault for being on the road,)
-A diesel train let off its' horn as it went past, RIGHT as it passed me
-I stopped under an overpass with awesome acoustics and started to play the guitar, which was absorbing until
-A bike rider came up behind me and startled me with his bell.

I was pretty much in tears at this point...
But then I got home, plugged my guitar in, HEAVY distortion, recorded a riff based on that emotion
Recorded some drums
Recorded vocals
I noted even after about 10 minutes that I simply didn't feel the hatred and hurt anymore. It isn't just enjoyable but therapeutic.

So the thing I learned... Creative output has the capacity to solve the emotional unrest of sound sensitivity. In the absence of a partner, music is truly my connection to the outside world. I've known this for a long time, but in the context of AS, which I am still wrestling with, it makes sense on a much deeper level.

What's your favourite meal?

Lunch.

Same question.

Chicken/waffles for brunch

When if ever was the last time you stole something?

About a month ago. I stole some useful cheap stuff from work. The way the management is treating the employees is pretty disgusting. So I don't feel bad at all.

Which do you like better, continental cucumbers or Lebanese cucumbers?

I'm actually not a fan of cucumbers at all. I sure that i might not like neither but you never know.

Does it startle you when people (joggers, bikers) suddenly appear behind you and say "To Your Right"?

Not really, but cyclists who treat people like dirt {just because they are cyclists} tick me off a lot.

Same question.

I've never had that happen, but it sounds unpleasant. How do you feel about polka music?

I don't know much about it but I believe that it must be less bad than the rubbish that is always playing on the radio etc.

Do you like Thai green curry?

never tasted it.

have you ever pretended to like something just so you could relate to someone else better?
