Alright, do as you feel.

we aren't. we are on the autism spectrum which is DIFFERENT. It is not Autism. We are on the spectrum, but not Auties.

and I think if we even have a Advocacy board, it should be AS advocacy not Autism advocacy! and doesn't that stuff go in the general section anyways?!


and your going so far as to say that people with comorbids shouldnt post here, and your bossing around where threads should go. im not trying to start anything, your just an increadibly bossy individual thats all

I never said they shouldn't post here. and I'm not bossing around where threads should go. The thread that you keep mentioning, was a very adult thread that was not for childrens eyes, as we have already discussed. If you don't like the fact that I don't feel that the children on this forum should not be seeing such things, then TOUGH. Deal with it. Stop bringing it back up over and over, trying to start trouble.

Thats NOT what this thread is about.

Yes you did. you mentioned a thread on ZOMg, about a month ago. I'm not a micromod. I'm not even a mod. If you don't like me, then fine. But stop picking on me. Your an adult, deal with it. Just because you have a sad and pathetic life, coming on here drunk and insulting people,starting arguments for NO reason, doesn't mean you can take it out on me.

Leave me alone.

Can we resume the original topic please?

Doesn't he mean, "A talking cat is still a cat"? ;)


Thanks for the correction Professor :)

I think we're all members of the same family, living and loving on the Autistic Spectrum. I have spent my whole life feeling like a misfit and am proud to call all the members of Wrong Planet my Whanua. Kia ora.

Yes you are doing something wrong. You are an adult, who should know better than to pick on someone. Leave me alone, and stop insulting me. and you did bring it up, because you said that i "boss where threads should go" which is about the one thread you keep complaining about.

I didn't tell you what to call it. and I didn't intentionally set out to insult you, which is what you are doing to me.

well not in so many words but thats basically what your telling people no? and im just returning the favor. i feel extremely insulted that you would have the gall to boss me around so much

what do you mean when you say this then? We are NOT autistic

we aren't. we are on the autism spectrum which is DIFFERENT. It is not Autism. We are on the spectrum, but not Auties

How am I bossing you around? I'm not telling you what to do. I'm voicing my opinion, which I have a right to do. You however do NOT have a right to continually harass and insult me.

I didn't say you weren't allowed to have an opinion. I said you weren't allowed to insult me. You are not stating an opinion, you are throwing insults at me. and my thread is not bossy. I don't know wht dictionary you've been using all these years, but it obviously isn't the one the rest of the world uses.


Now can we Please get back on topic??


I didn't know having an opinion would piss people off so much. :cry:

OK, back on topic: I am autistic. I don't know you, so I can't say if you are or not, but every researcher I know of maintains that Asperger's is a form of autism- many use AS and HFA interchangeably, or if they claim there is a difference it is only in the time at which an individual develops language, and even that distinction is impossible to make in adults. In any case, Aspies and Auties have a good deal in common, so why can't we come together as one?

Splitting 'his' and 'hers' topic

Spokane_Girl is the one with the signature that (paraphrased) says that it does not matter what the diagnosis is, it is all on the Spectrum.

I often describe myself as Autistic to those who do not know what Autism is.Once I explain this definition, then I explain that not all Auties are alike. Therefore, we live on a Spectrum--the Autism Spectrum. Then I explain Asperger's, or HFA.

So both richardbenson and ShadesofMe are correct. I do not know why they are arguing when they are simply talking about different aspects of the same issue. Oh well. It makes for interesting reading. :)
