ayyy... I'd probably be a Wolfman, it would boost my confidence, and I'd be able to stand up for myself, and scare people I dislike!

Same question.

A Wolfman. Or Wolfwoman, as the case may be.

In what ways do you stim (stimming refers to repetitive movements or behaviours like hand flapping, rocking, or listening to the same song over and over)?

I repeatedly listen to the same song over and over again, I flap my hands sometimes, I bounce instead of walk sometimes...

same question

When I was younger I rocked a lot. It drove people nuts. I also used to listen to the same songs over and over. Some of the songs I've had on endless repeat over the years were:

Feelin' Stronger Every Day - Chicago
Age of Aquarius - 5th Dimension
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
Sky High - Jigsaw
Love Bites - Def Leppard
The Chain - Fleetwood Mac

Do you like any of those songs I listed above?

I like Bohemian Rhapsody. Might like Age of Aquarius. Don't know the rest.

Same question.

Love 'Bohemian Rhapsody' and 'Sky High'. Like 'The Chain' and 'Aquarius'. Have 'Bohemian Rhapsody' and 'The Chain' on playlist.

Never heard the others but I probably wouldn't like the Def Leppard one as I am not a fan of that genre.

If you are on Twitter, do you 'follow' anyone in the public eye? (I've recently joined!)

I avoid Twitter & Facebook due to security and privacy concerns.

Do you feel there has been advancements in the social treatment of aspies the world over?

The "social treatment" of aspies? I'd say no because the majority of aspies the world over, especially the high functioning ones, are not even recognized as being on the spectrum. The lower functioning ones, the ones in institutions, are being well taken care of, for the most part, but that would be on a medical and psychological, not social, realm. I still maintain that, whoever you are, you're on your own, aspie or no, so good or bad social treatment based on your diagnosis wouldn't apply.

Then again, I could be wrong.

Same question.

Read "Metamorphesis" by Franz Kafka.

Have heard about the others, but never actually read their books.

Why THAT group of authors? Seems like an odd combination.

@kazanscube
Maybe a little bit, not much though because like redrobin62 said, ones that are high functioning aren't ever even noticed on the spectrum, and the ones that are low functioning are being cared for, but not socially.

Ever heard of "Psychobilly" or "Punkabilly"?

Yes, I have. I'm old school punk myself (Sex Pistols, The Clash, DRI, MDC, Husker Du, The Plasmatics, Dead Boys, etc). I remember when psychobilly came out. I believe the Cramps were pioneers in that field, maybe even the Stray Cats to a minor extent since their bassist used an upright bass. But I could be wrong.

Ever heard of the Norwegian band APB?

No.

Regardless if you are a fan of dystopian literature, which of the following do you consider the best of dystopian literature: 1984, Animal Farm, Brave New World, or Fahrenheit 451?

Fahrenheit 451 would be my favorite dystopian like future,after all we're reaching a point where people don't read actual paper books rather e-books, no there is nothing wrong with such, I simply choose to be a traditionalist.


What do you think the next few months or years are going to be like in the entire world itself?

I don't think anything is really going to change that much, maybe technology might get a little better, but not by much. I doubt we'll even have "flying cars" or "techno-powered" buildings in our lifetime.

Same question.

I'm hoping that things will be positive.

Have you ever played any of the spin-off Pokemon games?
