1. A stuffed bear my Dad gave me for valentines day when I was 4. Poor thing is 30 years old but I still have him.
2. My container of photos
3. A crystal angel my Gram gave me.

If you could swap places for one day with someone, who would it be?

I'm going to take swap places to mean switch bodies, like in body-swap films, although I'm not sure if that is what you meant.

I'd quite like to swap bodies with my sister for a day, because I would learn three things which I am curious of: what it is like to be without autism; what it is like to be female; what it is like to be really good at socialising and have a huge social circle.

^thats an amazing and cool reply McTell! I interpreted the question as swopping a day with a particular persons life. Like if you would like to be the king or live the life of a celebrity for a day or so....
And I got the same question about the home in fire at the exact time it turned up here but someone else was faster to bring it on as I was busy thinking of answers of this thread, lol

Anyway on this forum I cant say I have a real favourite smiley. They are too small and simple. Another forum I where at before had huge very expressive smileys, I liked many of them
So to pick one of this forum then I choose this one: :cat:

If you get the opportunity to try an extreme sport, what would you choose?

I've always wanted to try skydiving. Freefalling through the air for thousands of feet by myself. How could anything match that experience?



What's the most recent nice act that you've done for a stranger?

Those who contributed and posted more often either have left the place or lost interest a bit I suppose. I think it's a shame, like you probably, because I confess.... it's one of my favourite threads here. You get to know the other a little bit better by reading their answers. I must admit I slacked a bit myself also thou, not posting here. Tidal waves perhaps.

Oh, also finding a new question is sometimes difficult (sure I'm not the only one that has that problem sometimes).

Um.... :D

What's the colour of your eyes?

Green. They're kind of a kiwi fruit colour.

How long did you 'lurk' on Wrong Planet before creating an account? (I think 'lurk' is a well known term, but just in case it isn't: a lurker is one who reads a forum, but does not make posts)

I found this forum in December 08 or January 09 and I just started an account yesterday.

How did you find out you were on the autism spectrum?

Welcome HappyFox. :thumleft:

One day, I was reading about General 'Stonewall' Jackson on Wikipedia. A part of the article mentioned it had been speculated by someone-or-other that he had Aspergers Syndrome. I didn't know what that was, and so I read the article about that. I thought the symptoms described me pretty well, and so I read some books on it, coming to the conclusion that I did indeed have it.

~

I like the question, so let's have it again.

Erminea Yes Its one of my favourite threads as well for the same reason as yours and I have hard reading a lot of text this thread is perfect to "talk to each other" for me..so yeah its a shame indeed. I try to keep my hands off from here regularly so others will have the chance to reply or I end up interview myself lol! And I like to dig new questions 8)

okay back to topic, replying the question of McTell:

I found out I was on the autism spectrum by learning that my cousin have AS diagnosis. After that I wanted to know more about it and the more I found the more it was like me and at the end I wanted it confirmed once and for all....

Do you have Facebook and if so do you enjoy it?

Yeah, it's alright. It's curious bumping into old college friends on it.

What's the point of twitter? To me it just seems like a satire of pointless internet fads.

Agreed. I don't get the fascination with it.

Can you rub your belly in a circle with one hand, and pat the top of your head with the other hand, at the same time? :lol:

I think that's a cross post, so two answers from me (I couldn't find evidence of a book titled Yes).

I don't know, I can't think of an answer to your question.
