I was mocked at work today because I don't understand jokes and sarcasm. They seemed to think the funniest part was that I was too stupid to understand the terrible things they were saying about me.

I know it shouldn't matter, but I thought one of the people was my "friend", or rather becoming.

It hurt.

Any thoughts?

So I'm going to respond in 2 variations. This first one is what I WANT to think, and the second is what I really think from an external, rationalistic perspective.

1) Social Hierarchy, in order from social skills:
Full blown Psychopaths
Moderate Sociopaths
Neurotypicals
Narcissistic asses
Logical Humans (Not NTs)
Aspergers Syndrome
Full blown Autism
Other social debilitation

So we're lower down. Upsides is we have stronger morals, we are kinder, we are more logical, we are better at many things, but we are good and that leads us to be taken advantage of by those who have less empathy or ability.

2) Ok, the above statement is a logical fallacy and people are all unique and vary greatly, and cannot be fit into a box. Now that that's over with I can say what I think using the logical part of my brain instead of spewing out irrational emotional vomit. Basically, when people are together there tends to be an emphasis on the odd one out. They are fearful of their own social standing so they will pick on someone who can't fit in or doesn't want to, because they feel the need to secure themselves in a social pyramid. However, once they realize their behavior, either through the same actions being done to them, most of them change. Statistically, only 2% of the human population is TRULY evil, Sociopaths, psychopaths, narcissists, etc. The rest of us are just insecure floaters looking for ways to survive in the long run, and we don't directly wish harm on others unless something propagates it, or makes us feel insecure in some way.
