Reciting and Repeating Lines and Words

Post Reply New Topic

So glad I'm not alone on this one!

I do this all the time.

If someone says something that is the start of a quote (they may not even know the reference) i have to complete it. The worst was quoting the meaning of life Part 2 in my wedding vowels. Nobody made the connection though.

I am the worst with monty python and the simpsons. It just slips out. although random quotes from other sources do frequent my vocabulary also.

You're not the only one. I did it alot as a kid when I was excited about something. I still do it now, but I recite things when no one's around. I would usually download the audio version of it and listen and repeat it so my family won't go insane since I rewind and replay things over and over alot when I'm in a good mood.

I sometimes feel like a human soundboard. I absorb and recite so many quotes and phrases from movies, people I know, and so on. I remember wondering to myself a few months back of why I do this. I'll sometimes just say them to say them; other times, I'll work them into conversation (and then proceed to recite an entire scene from a video clip or something).

I used to do this a fair amount when I was a kid. I would whisper the last word--or the last few words--that I said back to myself. I don't do this so much, but I will still preservative on a word or phrase, especially if I'm excited about something.

I haven't been diagnosed with AS, but the more stuff I see like this, the less doubt there is in my mind that I have it.

I very often, and quite randomly, quote things from movies or TV-series. Or phrases I've read.

That's a tribble from the "trouble with tribbles" episode of the original star trek right? jk.

I recite numbers and do calculations in my head. That's my version of what you do. I find number MUCH easier to remember than words.

Again & again until the meaning dissolves into upgrade. Older I get, the harder to censor.

I still recite phrases esspecially when I am talking to myself. Like if I see the laser collection from you tube ill recite im a firin mah lazor and dr octogonopus blaaaargh. Hehe
