usually if you do that, people deny that you have AS.

Oh, and other people are such good judges of my medical conditions.


i wasn't saying they are. just that people by and large like to discount things like AS, particularly if the person they are watching seems normal to them.

I was being facetious. I forgot to wink.

Have a sense of humor now! Me and my friend made this site as a joke just to see what reaction it would get, and it got a bloody big one. I'm pretty impressed and frankly I think anyone who took it seriously needs a reality check and needs to stop taking the internet at face valve and realise most of it is utter rubbish. If you want to verify my identify feel free to email andyn at notandy dot com, the email on the whois.

Strange thing...I've been looking for my soul.


I sold my soul to my ex-girlfriend, signed it in blood and everything. I thought it was romantic :lol:

A joke isn't funny to everyone. I'm pretty sure I didn't offend 16,000+ people on this site. I have Aspergers and I made the site which the video links to (SteveRawx made the video) and I think it's pretty damn funny. And so do a lot of people I've spoke to.

The website looked like a joke. I wouldn't be surprised if it was all a joke.

I guess we fail to appreciate your sense of humor. Well, you know what they say, if they can't take a joke...

You clearly didn't speak to anyone responding to this topic.
