Mine wasn't the distraction during tests...that was in the class and homework. My problem on tests was the inability to recall on command the things I did know and shown I knew before.

if you run out of time on the 38th question of a timed 40 question online exam, because you are backing up a year and 5 gigabytes worth of imessages on your PC and it is a distraction.

...someone is standing in front of you, shouting at you for doing something they don't like, but the only thing you're thinking is, "Hmm. This guy's teeth are a little crooked. His parents should've given him braces when he was a kid. Too bad. Maybe it's not too late. I've been reading about Invisalign lately. Maybe his insurance company could cover the costs..."

You might be an aspie if you watch Daredevil and think about how horrible it would be to have his super heightened senses in a noisy city even though it's his super power.

When you go to the park, you bring one of your mom's grammar books.

You enjoy reading your math textbooks for fun.

If there's only certain things that you like, but you like almost obsessively.
If the Silmarillion or Dickens are considered to be suitable bedtime stories or light read by you.
