Uncyclopedia needs to make itself so that it is somehow distinguishable from Wikipedia. I thought that was where I was when I looked at that article.

I think of the rise of the NTs as the rise of the mediocre.

I think that "article" is mostly mocking the self-diagnosed (such as myself ;)). It really didn't make much sense, to be honest... I had trouble following it.

Do I get a golden retriever????

I just added a response here:

About the "article". I'm not sure if this site is on it's own, or a part of Wikipedia..since the design is very similar to Wikipedia. I basically told whoever runs the thing, take the article down. Or be prepared for the rest of the internet to know that you allowed a bunch of 14 year old sociopaths to post a nonsensical article that looks like it was written by a 2 year old. As well as that your site is ficetious and untrustworty for information. I also said either they take it down, or expect to have their inbox jammed with angry letters.

I hope you all don't think I was too harsh, but clearly the idiot running this site does not care about the site. I don't think they even moderate it, I mean letting a article that was written by a bunch of brats look like fact? If the owner doesn't think that having a dictionary site run based on fact, rather than some 14 year old bully's misinformation, then surely they should be outed as doing so.

I want a golden retriever too!!

Or, failing that, a cat.

Actually, forget the golden retriever... just give me a cat.

Meow.

Violet, I liked the article and the "in your face" attitude.

First of all, it is in no way affiliated with Wikipedia.

Secondly, they exist to be a humor site, not a serious source of information. As a matter of fact, if you put up an article with only serious information, it's going to get deleted. If you look at their site, you will find many statements such as this:
This is strictly a parody, satire and humor site, all content herein should be treated as such.

Yes, if we all just learn to laugh then the humour eventually gets lost.. I believe it'll happen with everything, eventually.. S'why we have to keep reseting that 'line' of whats vulgar and what isnt (Elvis Prestley did it in the 50's.. what he did was nothing compared to today)

So smile, know there is one about 'them,' and go on.. no sense in getting angry over a thought, even if its wrong..

Goes back to a saying I saw once at school:

Be proud of who you are...

...but don't lose the ability to laugh at yourself.

Pretty good, in my opinion.

It wasn't even meant to cut down on autistic people, it was cutting down on fake "autistic" people, people pretending to be something their not. Read the article.

Snowfern, what do you mean by ":E"? You've used it a few times before and after staring at it for several moments I still can't figure it out.

Ohh... I see it now! Thanks! That's a good one to add to my repertoire :E (hmm I have a feeling it doesn't fit into this context right now... doesn't matter, I wanted to use it!)
