Funny, yesterday I watched the Lion King 3 and it struck me from the beginning of how Timon the meercat was an oddball and didn't find his place in his society, did all the wrong things, didn't fit in.

He says he hates noise (when he is sleeping in a tunnel and hears loud music).

So jokingly I told my friend "he is an Aspie". I mean one can try to see Aspergers in many characters, but as the movie went on I got confirmation...at one point he was wearing a dress and his mum was horrified by it. Also Pumba says at some point "he takes everything litteraly, to which my friend and I burst out in laughter :D

Lion King is my main obsession. Timon is my favorite character, now I know why.

So, I tried replying and it didn't work... I hate having to repeat myself. Anyway, Lion King is one of my favorite movies, and when the Lion King 1 1/2 came out I was doubtful. I ended up laughing throughout the movie. Timon is also my favorite character!

That's funny. I wonder if Timon has problems reading facial expressions.

BTW, meerkat is spelled with a K, not a C.
