I propose a new aspie "symbol"

Post Reply New Topic

I have been told many times I walk around with a blank expression on my face. I decided to take it humorously, and have gotten tired of being told to "smile," so when I was cleaning my room the other day and found some stickers I bought some time ago, I decided to stick one on my nametag at work (we're allowed to decorate them).

This is my expertly rendered version :



When I pointed it out to my coworker, she found it quite humorous as well, heheh.

After hundreds of years of evolution and the "disorder" of aspergers becoming more common the human race evolved because of years spent indoors reading computer screens in the dark. Our pupils got bigger to accomodate for the lack of light and our bodys wasted away.

Yes absolutely, although the evolutionary change will probably take a lot more than a few hundred years.

Greys are not aliens; they are evolved humans from the future that have discovered time travel. Those on the Autistic spectrum were the only survivors of humanity. It will be discovered by Autistic scientists that the source of all evil is small talk and other irrational NT social behaviour.

That is great, but I hope it is meant to have a happy expression at some point.

What's wrong with having a mild face?

Your not happy or sad you're mildy.

Maybe I don't see it very clearly.

This is what I look like without a smile.

Hmm, I like it Civet! I'd like to put something like this on my car...

Civet: Brilliant!

And yes, I, too, get really sick of being told to smile all the time. Amusingly enough, that combined with my light-sensitivity apparently make me seem constantly angry when out in the sun (when in reality I'm just squinting to keep the light from hurting my eyes) and my stupid, stupid high school thought I was going to go Columbine on them, and made me see the counselor because of it. They were really paranoid about stuff like that, and honestly, I didn't blame them. They ran the school so incredibly _poorly_ that I'd not be surprised if some student cracked one day and pulled some sort of nasty stunt.

I want a bumper sticker of this to put in the backside of my car.

Though I need to get a car first...

Oh yes, much like my avatar

I used to get told to 'Cheer up' and 'Smile' all the time and annoyed the hell out of me. My facial expression never shows my true feelings.

I'd rather not smile at all than be a buffoon who never stops smilling.

Isn't it the truth?

One day I was at work (ER nurse - not the most happy place in the world) when one of the docs walked by me and said "Smile!". I'd had it. I took him aside, and I said, "You know, I have severe depression. Sometimes it's just impossible to make my facial muscles do that" Boy did he ever apologize. LOL
