I think it is:

1) when I am too slow in movements (walking etc)
2) when I take a long time to do something (a task, get ready for something or whatever),
3) when I have to come back and ask something a second time that already got explained the first time,
4) when I hum to myself.

I am pretty sure people hate those things about me (and probably more things too).

Talk too fast, talk about stuff no one else cares about, talking in general, been told I'm pretentious so there's probably something there, say "oh that's easy is that all" when it's apparently not easy I guess...

My modes of existence seem to tend towards bothering people.

1. The urge and excitement to interrupt conversation, or have already interrupted when I lose consciense of myself

2. zoning out and say something not related to the conversation

3. say the obvious, rude/blunt in a way like "the emperor is not wearing clothes"

4. Totally zone out and not acknowledge the speaker's story

5. Over friendly and then anti social

6. I'm not talking to you about today's weather.

Not being easily manipulated is a huge one that has caused me problems with various bullying types.

I can really spiral down and obsess over the negatives. Makes me very hard to be around during those times.

My unwillingness to budge when I have decided not to do something.

Forgetting things and leaving stuff lying around the place.

Getting an idea in my head and not.letting.it go.

Not socialising.

1.On many occasions I have been told I am too honest.
2.My inability to listen.
3.My propensity to self-deprecate.
4.The mere fact that I now question almost anything that isn't literal. If you were to say "The penny has finally dropped", I would either say that I can't see a penny lying around anywhere or look at you in a quizzical fashion.
5.My strong moral code that hasn't changed since '09. I am much like Batman but without his brains, physique, money and crime-fighting abilities.
6.My difficulties with empathy or at least exhibiting the right emotion at the correct juncture.

I Told my therapist that I don't think I have problems with empathy and Then she told me that "It's not that, but it is Sympathy, Which is acting upon empathy." Also Talking down to people like their "idiots". Repeating Facts I say like every day. They don't realize I can't help it.

I lost a Swiss army knife in a TSA checkpoint once. That annoyed people...

I suffer from anxiety along with the Aspergers, and because of this, I sometimes feel like I'm bothering the people around me, so I will go into a kind of loop where I accuse myself of being annoying, which ironically seems to be more annoying than whatever I thought was annoying them. However, I have been getting better with this.
