On a certain image board you'd get over 9000 replys with fleshlights + keyboards on top!

That's funny.

I got a six. Hooray?

It sounds good, but if you work in IT, you might want to consider a career change... :wink:

[quadibloc]

My score was high too, 23.

The test said I'm the "average female scientist". The only problems are that I'm male, and I'm not a scientist.

Really? I thought you were a female scientist the whole time! Your persona totally screams it.

Maybe they'll fuse together to form something vaguely useful.

We should shoot them down the Large Hadron Collider and see what happens when they meet.

The LHC is working much better now they've upgraded the sensors:

This is getting confusing.  I can never tell EverythingIBM and MW apart and now you guys are trolling each other?

It's simple, he uses ancient IBM-clones and I use genuine IBMs. And I also have high-end computers. AND, I also play a lot of computer games.

Fuse together? Why don't you go fuse together with some irish beer =p

[Half-Saint]

I got 17 on the test - average female scientist

Irish beer is highly over-rated...

Irish beer is highly over-rated...

Don't tell that to the Nigerians.

Not surprised. (Not that I think that that test was meaningful. There's ways for people who aren't anywhere near the autistic spectrum to score high, and people who have been diagnosed to score very low.)

Never been diagnosed, but considering that I don't use it as an excuse, and know how to work around my limitations, I don't think I need to be diagnosed. I've definitely had to LEARN social cues, though, and if I'm not concentrating on them, I miss them.

The trick to adapting to Asperger's is to hyperfocus on social cues for a while. Turns the downsides of Asperger's upside down on themselves.

And, at least in my experience, once I hyperfocus on something, for the most part, the knowledge doesn't leave me, even when I switch to hyperfocusing on something else.

Oh, and I think the descriptions of "assburgers" are ****ing funny. I guess I lucked out and got this thing called "a sense of humor."

39. What are these other people I keep hearing about ?

To an extent, I could say the same of myself. This of course raises the question - when is it Aspergers, and when is it just being an awkward teenager who learns social norms the hard way?

That said, I got 21
