We love Skilpadde

We use smart devices a lot these days, but technology isn't really setting us further apart from each other. People do and will always socialize face to face(except for us poor autistics, who can't socialize at all).

It gets easier when a person gets more familiar.

An autistic can easily talk with his family, but not so with work colleagues.

And you can talk to us. It's fun to talk about so many different subjects, and know that somewhere on here, someone will actually read it and enjoy it, and maybe reply.

No washing machines, plumbing, modern medicine and surgery, less equality...



yeah, it did have its perks!


Indeed! I have a small model of Stephenson's Rocket on my shelf.


Agreed. I really enjoy these chat threads we have here!

Wrong Planet is a great time killer.

WP is a great place to interact with others, talk about so many different things, and have a nice time.

Indeed but only for us ASD people. NTs probably feel lost and alone here, in another world.

Ah, but some of their NT family members come here to learn about Autism.

You're in Norway, Skilpadde? I'm part Norwegian, myself!

That's awesome, Kyle! Do you know where in Norway your family originate from, or how far into the past it was?
I'm almost all Norwegian myself. My great-grandfather was Danish, so I'm 1/8 Danish and 7/8 Norwegian.

I'm afraid not. One of my grandfathers is where I got my Norwegian heritage from and he passed away years ago. I'm 1/4 Norwegian, 1/2 Greek, 1/4 British. I say British, because it is split between England and Ireland with a hint of Scotland.

^ you are an interesting mix, Kyle.


I am completely English for as far back as anyone could trace. I guess my family wasn't that big on moving, or meeting foreigners. I wonder where I got my interest in all things foreign?

Thank you, Moomingirl!

A British Moomin?

A Greek/Scandinavian/British Spook?

Hmmmmm.

, Huh?

Don't forget a largely-Norwegian-with-a-hint-of-Danish Turtle!
