Funny, but too much eye contact.


I noticed that too. And the girl at the beginning who says "we both have aspergers" does a lot too much with her face. You'd think with how much they were trying to exaggerrate all the symptoms(with looking away from the camera and acting awkward at the beginning and flat expressions), that they wouldn't have let those things slip by.


Not quite a flat effect topic

The presentation of AS in girls is a bit different, but then these actors are more than likely NT.


Its not going to be perfect, but if that's the only major slip up I'm fine with that. They could be doing much worse & also not be as funny. Plus, I've known some aspies who can make eye contact with close friends they are comfortable with. They just need to keep a variety of distinct characters who remain obviously aspie, but can divert to slightly NT to give examples of those who have developed coping skills.

I liked the video. For me, the idea of a place in real life in which aspies hang out together whithout any NT supervision and nothing goes horribly wrong is escapist fantasy.

Geez, I understood the monologue part, but I don't have a problem with happy or sad, lol.

But seriously, I knew people that were sort of like that like in college... I think back to the past and wonder about them... mostly the computer programmer guys I knew.

They seem too amateur to be professional and too professional to be amateur.
They seem to know too much about AS, unless AS has become the "new black".
And there are too many of them in a group to be AS. ;)

We don't fail!! ! Some of us are really smart and focus are special interest towards a degree and can know a field better than alot of NT's. Also we aren't "creatures" we are humans or human beings so it'd be we are the worst kind of human/human being NOT creature! Also that's a gross Avatar!! !

Random posting of porn is common in trolls. The fact that they also have posts in the adolescent forum is troubling. I really hope they haven't posted in the kids crater.

Also, I wonder if the actors in that video have Asperger's themselves.


They forgot about the, "I wont talk to you if you dont talk to me," Aspie (<raises hand> unless someone talks to me, i honestly have no urge to talk to them). Just hope they dont burn the series out . . . too many gags at once could kill it.

I seriously don't think it's a real series but you're right if it is they could burn it out easily.

Well, this has finally annoyed me. My son and I have been going "asperger's high" at each other in whispery voices when we do anything obviously aspie (in his case going on and on about video games, in my case going on about Polish grammar, which is what I'm trying to learn right now.)

So, last night I was trying to get to sleep, and that whispery voice, "asperger high" kept going in my head. URGH!

Other than that, I still think it's funny.
