Suppose you still play with your food and you're, say, 26. What do you do?

...you still live with your family, even though you are above legal age, and they act paranoid around you.

You are chosen to sit on committees at work (much to your co-workers chargrin) because your boss says you always bring a fresh view on things and have a different perspective of problems. You think outside the square.


LOL, what square :lol:

you might be aspie if :
Your friends/acquaintances know you better then you know them/ Someone comes up to you that you have known for years but you have no idea who they are.

If you get in trouble for calling out all the answers

If you ever gotten detention for reading during a lesson

... if your family tells you that you have a sad look on your face (and suspect a depression) when you actually look "neutral" and mentally feel good.

...you buy food in bulk because you don't like grocery shopping and you'll be eating the same thing many weeks or months in a row anyway.

...you have unusual eating habits which others consider bizarre.

... when you are serious people start laughing and think you are joking. And you laugh along or keep quiet.

... when you are joking no one gets it.

... kids threat you like another kid even though you are supposed to be their sunday school teacher.

... you don't recognize your boyfriend and best friend and they just stare to you for a few minutes asking each other if they should just call out to me or wait a few more minutes.

... you get more excited passing a gamestore than than buying new clothes.

... you worry you won't be able to fake enthusiasm if you meet a pop culture celebrity.

... you worry you will look crazy if others knew who your idols where.

During Monopoly game night, everyone is busy buying and selling property but you are:
1. Wondering how the manufacturers made the edges of the dice so smooth.
2. Wondering what kind of metal the tokens are made from.
3. Wondering what kind of material the dice are made from.
4. Wondering if it's possible to use Monopoly money in real life like some communities which have their own currency.
5. Wondering if there are Monopoly games for other major cities like LA, Chicago, Houston or Nashville.
6. Wondering if their are also versions like Eskimo, Wild West, ghetto, Hollywood or Redneck.

So true! That sounds like me. I have the same problem while teaching high school Spanish.

...your odd eating habits can cause a relationship to fail. To wit:

1. Lack of respect for the common (normal) times for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Yep.
2. One roasted chicken eaten for breakfast, lunch & dinner on the same day? Okay.
3. Eating the burned food left over in the bottom of a pot? Fine.
4. Clams for breakfast, octopus for lunch and snails for dinner? Superb.
5. Any animal can end up on your plate, from wild boar to brown bear to green iguana to American alligator? Sure, why not.
6. Pizza or spaghetti & meatballs for breakfast? Check.
7. The same foods eaten at the same time on every day? Absolutely.
8. Bulk food shopper online or at a local restaurant wholesale store.? Without a doubt.
9. Strong interest in the cuisines of the world? Uh huh.
10. Fascinated enough with food to craft your own cheeses, jerky meats, beer, ice cream, butter or jams? Sign me up!
