Quote:Repetitive behavior is probably universal among people on the autism spectrum.
My concept of logical thinking goes like this: If you know what makes me mad, doing it (for example saying something about cats being food) is making me mad on purpose even if the statement is obviously a joke.
People with Asperger's syndrome appear to be slow learners because of their social deficits. Intellectually, there is often no difference in learning speed. A common problem is taking information too literally. Years ago at work I took a phone call and told the caller the lady he wanted was out of the room. He said, "I will call back in a couple minutes." When my coworker came back she was mad at me for not taking a message because someone else told her about the call. The guy never called back. How was I supposed to know she needed his name and number? That kind of thing can make a smart person look stupid.
Here is my perspective. It's largely a misconception that other people "make you mad". No one makes you mad, becoming mad is something you allow to happen to yourself. While it's easier to blame external causes for becoming angry, taking personal responsibility when it happens may help people enjoy your posts more. I think you asked about correcting grammar. It's a minor nit, but if it's repetitive it can start to seem pedantic which is generally an unpleasant quality.

This pretty much nails the coffin on this subject.
You can have peace of mind knowing that I have never picked on you. At least as far as I can tell. But then again, I come here as a form of internet "people watching" if you will. Not in a creepy way, which I'm sure some of you were delighted to think that you could make a joke of it. But like if you're chilling at a corner cafe in a quaint and tidy downtown street corner and you're just observing things around you.
Quote:That is typical of people with Aspergers..."<b>Asperger syndrome</b> (<b>AS</b>), also known as <b>Asperger's syndrome</b>, <b>Asperger disorder</b> (<b>AD</b>) or simply <b>Asperger's</b>, is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication, alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests."
Try laying a penny on the coffee table in a house where someone with OCD lives and watch them squirm until they just have to move the penny...The penny does not belong there and until it's picked up it drives them crazy. The same type deal with Aspergers to an extent...Grammar errors can drive somone with Aspergers absolutley crazy and without trying, make people mad for being the grammar police
You got it. This is why I hold back on many of my comments. I understand this, so that is why I do.
When a new person sees some of the stuff written from JDub it really is a major turn off. I try to see all angles.
We love you JDub.
Quote:Hell I want to be treated differently
This board can accomodate I'm sure.
Quote:I just made corrections to your post. Are you mad?
But on a lighter note, I never would have guessed "bch" is short for beach.
Most people assume bch is an abbreviation for another word after talking with her for a few minutes.

This....a lot of the newer members dont know everyone's background here so they are quicker to judge.
People in this thread that are posting rude things just to push buttons are the worst.

Part of me thinks this is an experiment, we are all going to be apart of some award winning movie or documentary on trolling. I can't wait to see my screen name on the big screen!

Could JDub be trolling from as far as the motherland?
