Off topic slightly, the best tee-shirt I 've seen said "Is My Asperger's Confusing You?".
I don't like symbols like the puzzle ribbon and this infinity one, plus the rainbow signifies being gay to most people. If need be I'd rather the symbol was the head of an alien or a spaceship as life feels like being on the wrong planet and it is called "the wrong planet syndrome". Or we could have something whimsical and sassy like Dr. Asperger's head on a stick or a circle of people holding hands and looking disgusted lol

Some people on tumblr said that the puzzle piece was offensive. my tumblr name is SophayLavender btw

I personally like to use a snowflake because every snowflake is unique in its own way

I like the snowflake too. I wonder which are the powers that be, that would have to agree to get rid of the other symbols and use a snowflake? how do we switch to the snowflake? who decides what the symbol will be?

I think we should go for it and try to make this official. If anyone knows how to do that it would be great. I would definitely wear a shirt with that on it.

LOL! Each shirt would have to have it's own snowflake pattern! If enough people wear them we'll be able to ski!
