greenturtle74’s Cartoon Guide to Asperger’s

Post Reply New Topic

I loved it when I saw it, some of it described me, but I'm not actually "faceblind"

I think this applies to me pretty well.

I also think you did a great job.
It really describes Aspies well, in my mind.

Well, if your not tired of hearing it already: Well done! Well done indeed!
Very precise, easy to grasp, and simple at the same time. I guess you can understand it, even if your pretty young, like 8 years old or so. I guess there's a little more to being aspie, so I, too would encourage more cartoons, e.g. on some of the problems on motor skills (walking, cycling etc.) and talking/pronounciation. I really don't know if these issues are easy or appropriate to illustrate the same way, but I would really like to see more cartoons coming. I feel well described by most of them, too, and actually liked them so much, that I had a laugh or two while reading. Job well done!

Small argument with this: I am (suspecting) Aspie, and I know a few aspies, who are extrovertive. Being in crowded loud areas can excite us, and talking to people we enjoy alot. granted, I still have a bit of a hard time discussing things with a lot of people (big part of that is always wanted to comment on everything) but I still love being around people, and I actually don't really like alone time that much. I see the positive aspects of it, but I feel loneliness and detachment during them. Just thought you shouldn't suggest that all Aspie people are introvertive.

Well done greenturtle!

I have just read through all posts and discovered your blogg, t-shirts and book, well done on that too . May I suggest you edit your original post to include links at the bottom? If I hadn't been curious I would have thought the rest of this thread was praise from people and missed the rest.

Thanks, so much, greenturtle74! What an enlightening and humourous look into the world of Asperger's. I am so glad I found this entry!

Another remix coming your way!

This one's based on how I hate bright lights. I'm the one running away saying "AAAAH! It's too bright!"
It took me forever to find pictures and images from your blog. But you have the result! =)

EDIT: Yes, I know even NT's wouldn't stare at the sun like that unless they were idiots (no offence to any NT's here). It's just a little exaggeration on light sensory issues.

Hey, I enjoyed looking at your illustrations, thanks for sharing them

Yeah, I don't like bright lights in general, but I hate car headlights at night!

Sunlight doesn't bother me. It's the bright artificial lights, fluorescent in particular, that make me sick.

I get annoyed when NT talk about the weather. I really don't care if it's sunny out or grey. I hate when NT complain about the rain. Unless it's causing floods it's a good thing. If it was "nice" out every day we would all die of starvation eventually.

That is brilliant.

yay for clouds

Hahaha!! ! That was a good one! Good job, Greenturtle!
