I'm a very disaster-happy person who gets bored easily. Can you think of any jobs that are really exciting for someone like me? I like being able to rise to the occasion and have something to brag about later in my memoirs. :D

We could organize an aspie hit squad to take out the North Korea dictator. I'm sure we
could pick up $50,000,000 on that project.

I really wish we could do that, actually. :D Technically we can, but it's not likely to happen, right? Unless we're all disaster-happy...

i am a furniture removelist which is the the most punk rock thang i have ever been involved in ..it s taught me body coordination and confidence...makes me feel like a alpha male wolf in a wolf pack ..its been very hard talkin with the more "base" but most people in that industry have big problems and in their way have taken me under thier wing....i find it very hard to do manual labour like puttin togeter beds and wardorbes and sometimes have felt a deep sense of shame about my aspergers..its confuses the others.. yet ihave the wildest times and and have never felt
more free like a wild animal yelling and laughing and runing around ..its been ultra harsh and almost broken me..yet every day is different and i find my aspie detachment gives me a edge over my co-workers...its very hard on my body though...i like the fitness and thinkin on the edge of my seat...yet latley my pattern has been broken so am thinkin of leaving....yet its taught me alot about myself...things i will take to the grave.. a edge and hardness to survive...
anyhows good luck brother aspie

The reason why we could not do it is we have no creditability. If we did some small jobs
to make a name for ourselfs we could then contact some Japan billionarie fascist/nationalist who hate NK.

We need someone who can speak both Japanese and Korean. We need a few asia looking
people. We need someone to be a journalist to relay where the mark will be. In other words we will have atleast two teams. The Journalist would have a transmitter/gps
unit in their video equipment. Other idea is to have a good looking women give the
mark an infection with a slow acting e coli. Think Heather Gram in Austin Powers shagging fat ba$tard.

Unless we managed to Focus on him, we'd probably get distracted halfway there and forget what we were doing, stop off in Tokyo, buy a bunch of maps, have a few meltdowns because only one or two of us speak Japanese and why are all these short people invading my personal space? Wait, no, don't leave the group, where are you going? Huh? Oh, yeah, you can bring your Routemaster-grenades, Cockney. No, I'm sorry, I don't know if Kim Jong Il likes Routemasters. Y'might ask him wh- oh, right, we were going to N Korea. Ok, everyone on the damn bus... we're missing 3? Crap.

or

Control to sniper 2, you're clear to take the shot. Confirm.

Sniper2, confirm.

Sniper2, con-
Yeah, sorry... take the shot?
Sniper2, what's the problem?
Oh, nothing, I was just playing with a caterpillar. Been waiting a long time you know.

Working in films (as a writer or special effects crew member, for instance) can be exciting, particularly if the film is meant to shake the audience up.
