Overheard at the medical clinic yesterday.
NT: Knock, knock.
Aspie: Why are you saying that?
NT: It's the beginning of a joke, Roger. You're supposed to say, "who's there?"
Aspie: But I know who you are. You're my friend Simon and you gave me a lift down here.
NY: Yes, but I'm trying to tell a joke. It requires some back and forth from me and you.
Aspie: You need me to tell your joke back to you?
NT: No. I need you to just play along with me till I get to the punch line.
Aspie: So what do you want me to do?
NT: When I say "knock, knock" you ask "who's there?" Understand?
Aspie: Okay.
NT: Knock, knock.
Aspie: Who's there?
NT: Iona.
Aspie: Your name is Simon.
NT: I know, Roger. When I say "Iona" you're supposed to ask "Iona who?"
Aspie: I am? That doesn't make sense. I've known you since high school.
NT: It's part of the joke. Can't you just humor me?
Aspie: Humor you? Aren't you the one who's telling the joke?
NT: Oh, my goodness! You're giving me a stroke! Can't you just play along?
Aspie: Alright! Geez, for someone who's supposed to be telling a joke you don't seem all that funny.
NT: Okay. Can we start again? No interruptions?
Aspie: Sure.
NT: Knock, knock.
Aspie: Who's there?
NT: Iona.
Aspie: Iona who?
NT: I own a brand new car. You wanna ride?
Aspie: Your car's not new. It's a fifteen year old Chevy Malibu with a dent on the hood.
NT: Have a nice bus ride back home.
awesome!
A person with bipolar, a schizophrenic person, and a person on the spectrum are sitting around a camp fire, talking about their communities. The person with bipolar, showing off, brings out a masterpiece painting, and throws it into the fire, saying, "We have so many great artists in the bipolar community, this piece won't be missed". The schizophrenic person, not to be outdone, takes a new composition on sheet music and throws it into the fire, saying "There are so many great musicians in the schizophrenic community, it won't be missed". The autistic, not to be outdone, disappears into the woods for a few hours, comes back, and throws a vaccine conspiracy theorist into the fire.
Two aspies walk into a bar.

What did the aspie say to his cutest co-worker?
Nothing... nothing at all.
Q.How can you tell if someone with Asperger's is trying to charm you?
A. They begin the conversation with "Did you know" rather than "You're wrong"
