You're mistaking me for Tines, I'm the one who cuts myself and cries and lives in an emo-poetry induced stupor, remember?BrikHaus wrote:I'm putting my money on something to do with pedophilia.fadingreminder wrote:I'm going to start seeing a psychiatrist sometime in January or February, so if I get diagnosed with anything, I'll be sure to let you guys know.

That's funny, because one of the DSMIV's criteria for diagnosing Asperger's Syndrome is an individual's inability to understand complex methaphors or indirect language

Well you see that's where it gets a bit murky; the thing with many Aspies is you can "learn" metaphors and non-verbal social cues; but more on a broad, abstract, theoretical level.
Mr. Tines wrote:@Asperger's
I happen to know a teenage girl with the syndrome -- she is unreasonably brilliant (top of the class in arts and sciences), musically gifted, sporting (karate black belt) and heavily involved in amateur dramatics and roleplaying games.
She says the best thing about Asperger's is that she is immune to peer pressure.
