Not sure what this has to do with autism (maybe autistics are more likely to follow the rules?), but I need to vent.

I bought 5 pounds of silica gel to dry flower petals for an art project. When I got it home I found no instructions in it. No problem, just looked stuff up online. When I went to dry the flowers, I figured out what happened to the instructions. I poured the silica beads into a container, and imagine my surprise when I found pieces of leaves and flowers in it. Some ass hat had bought the stuff, taken it home, dried their flowers, put it back in the original packaging and returned it to the store, minus the instructions..

Grrrr ...

The only thing that scares me more than space aliens is the idea that there aren't any space aliens. We can't be the best that creation has to offer. I pray we're not all there is. If so, we're in big trouble.

Heh heh. Ellen DeGeneres has a great acerbic wit.

Hawkins was saying that if there are aliens, they are probably a lot like us, hence we wouldn't want to meet them. Forget the exact quote.

:lol: I love this quote. My point of view exactly :D

The quote "The more I know people, the more I love my dog (or cats in my case)" seems to fit as well :wink:

I hate people too - especially that bloated lump I saw in the supermarket who was opening up bag after bag of grapes and rummaging through each one to pick out the best, which then got dumped in her bag of grapes.
I nearly threw up.
