I thought a great Aspie read...

Very informative and explains that NTs aren't stupid. just human.

Does this mean that the fact that my mother was getting her master's in computer science while she was pregnant with me is the root of all my problems?
Did I mention that I'm in love with an engineer?

This is a great read for anyone who is deluded by that AS superiority crap.

Interesting and funny.

I particularly enjoyed "Humans don't mean what they say".

A question and a consideration:

Does this mean we are not human ?

If humans stands for NTs I think "mean the opposite" would be more accurate.

I believe you will find that, the more you attune yourself with the machine, the less you are attuned with people. This applies to virtually anything if taken to excess.

These are mutually exclusive? I certainly have my stupid moments and feel my most human at those times.

Yes, which is why I have contempt for humanity

And I still say we AS are superior. Nature just built us that way

Why are we superior?(I'm going to need more than it just is that way)

Very simple, my good man: Nature is run by logic; by that, I mean say, an apple falls from a tree because of gravity, and thinks happen for scientific & logical reasons.

We Autistic folk are mostly in tune with our logical sides, as we're a bit disconnected emotionally, and don't even get me started socially.

Most NTs are not run by logic, but rather emotion and feeling. That's why humankind always clashes with nature and "society has been going downhill since Day 1"; welcome to humanity.

Humanity seems to be eternally suckered in by every voodoo scam that comes along, due to a need to feel important. It's not about whether anything actually improves, but that they feel like they matter.

God do I "hate" to tell 'em they don't. Yeah I'm being a prick there, but I still love saying it.

i was gonna say we are not superior to nt but.... imagine this nt's and high functioning autistics having equall numbers what would be different what would stay the same.

My son-in-law is probably one of the best programmers in the world.

Seriously, he has an IQ that is almost off the charts and he heads up a team of 50 people.

Is he an Autie? No, but he does have Borderline Personality Disorder.

He doesn't give a rat's what anyone thinks. If he thinks anyone is a fool he will tell them so.
The reason he has a well paid job is that he is so good at what he does.
