When they pause to collect their thoughts while talking, finish their sentence for them.

Rearranged the furniture. My evil stepmother use to move the furniture around roughly once a week.

She also told me there was nothing wrong with me and I just "wanted to be special"

Tell them you are leaving and you don't leave for another twenty minutes
Tell them to visit with other people and not be a alone
Call a binder a notebook
Call a laptop a notebook
Make rules and not enforce them
Makes rules and only have them apply to the aspie but not to anyone else
Make a fuss about things they do normal kids/adults do too and blame it on AS
Make a big deal out of things they do normal kids do too and not make a big deal what normie kids do
Make a rule and not have it apply to all situations and then penalize them for it when they don't follow it where the rule didn't apply (I once got pulled over for going with the flow of traffic and I was given a ticket)

- Tap them on the shoulder
- Play loud music
- Beat around the bush when you talk to them instead of being up-front
- Fill the room with any sort of strong odor
- Tease and joke around with them
- Ignore them when they try to communicate with you

Interruptions while I'm obviously in the middle of concentrating.

Things that annoy me personally
- Talk, talk, talk and talk
- Try to force a response from me (usually emotional)
- Stare at me
- Indirectness/subtleness
- Too loud/overdramatic
- Too close
- Touch (specifically to my surprise)
- Confuse me
- Try to boss me around

Brag to the aspie about what a great success you are at work, how you have 10,000 Facebook friends, how great your love life is and how the aspie can be like you, all the aspie has to do is be confident, smile and stop making excuses. Tell the aspie that you were a little autistic until you figured out this easy and simple method.

Ask them what's bothering them, then criticise them for complaining.

Criticise them because they don't join in group conversations, then when they do join in a group conversation, give them the bitchy ''we wasn't speaking to you'' look.

When a teen/early-20s Aspie says they're bored or lonely, tell them to ''go out clubbing''.

Criticise or rub it in that they haven't got any friends.

Tell them to stay away from any friends who uses/takes advantage of them or have a disturbing quirk, then critically say ''so you're going to wonder around on your own like a lost soul?'' when they say they want to take the bus to a shopping centre for the day. Hello? This is why some of us stay with quirky users as friends, so that we at least have someone to go out and about with. That's better than doing everything alone, right?

I think these are ways to hurt or offend an Aspie more than anything else.

I got that a lot when I was in my late teens, early 20s. That was probably my darkest period, socially speaking.

14) When a steam kettle goes off, take a long time to get to it to take it off the burner

15) Watch a sports game and cheer at it really loud

16) Keep trying to look in their eyes

17) Tell them to "Look at me."

18) Get into their special interests and read all about it and memorize facts and then start talking to them about it sharing those facts with them


These things will drive me over the edge any day. who but an aspie knows how to annoy another aspie? lol.

Here's another advice, small talk them for hours, talking about NOTHING the way nts know how to do. that will get me anytime. but get a halmet first, because i might knock you over the head with something.

Walk up them and start talking to them when they are in the middle of something and not shut up when they don't put their book down or close their laptop or turn their game off or take out their headphones

Just tell them you are going somewhere together and keep on procrastinating

Try and mess with their plans

If you know the person is an Aspie, yell out a sentence with ''Asperger's Syndrome'' in to the Aspie in front of a few (or lots of) other people, without stopping to think that not everybody with a (not-so-obvious-on-the-outside) diagnosis wants the whole world to know. :oops:

hate me for being autistic and deny my autism just because I dont have any of the stereotypes that you have heard of, just to make me out to be 'sick in the head' /*sigh*

crave to be my best friend, and then flirt with my gullible husband (actualy, thats enough to piss anyone off in that situation)

egg me on, just so you can see me get angry and have a meltdown, then laugh at me like you're beinng entertained

either hate me or fancy me (if you are a man) - my husband is the only man in the world that is entitled to fancy me
