Make your own syndrome...

So this could end up being really stupid or really cool. While many people here have AS we are all unique. So make your own syndrome named after you that describes all of your quirks and things.
My example: Brandon's Syndrome
* Highly sarcastic and can go too far with sarcasm and jokes/teasing
* Anxious in new situations
* Anxious around people he/she is not comfortable with, and/or can not think of something to say for conversation, but once he/she feels comfortable, can be highly humorous, sarcastic, and/or hyper.
* Sometimes fails to recognize and/or think of how what he says or does may make others feel. Once he/she founds out how the person feels, he/she may feel regret or guilt, or think the other person is being overly emotional depending on the situation.
