I pit Diamonds02 and his honk-happy friend

God she is a fucking moron. Please people, stop trying to help her. How can I get a commercial fishing license to fish a lake empty and fry all the fish and sell them out of the back of my truck at a flea market??? Does that seem like a non-trolling request to anybody?

The awkward moment when the vanity search goes horribly wrong.

But BTW I have VIP Meet & Greet tix to a Big Time Rush show…I was outbid for the One Direction tix though: +$5,000? Seriously?

…what?

Yea but with a real job you have to show up on time, not accidentally offend anyone, need charisma to explain away oddness in your education/employment record which is common, and you have to interact socially and have to socialize to even get the job. People with AS can have such poor social skills they REALLY rub people wrong.

I don’t understand…Were we not paying enough attention to you?

Vogue, for your own good put down the vodka and back away from the computer slowly.

To be fair though, someone with Asperger’s Syndrome lacks the physiology to ever understand the discomfort of the person they’re offending. The cost/benefit calculation of telling a joke includes the chance someone will be offended by it for the person finding humour, unless they have Asperger’s. I used to volunteer with someone with Asperger’s and their idea of a joke was “how are your parents” to a woman whose parents he knew had just died recently or “how’s your girlfriend” to me, when I’d been perpetually single at the time. I think quite a few of the snuff style videos appeal to them on that basis, they know they get a rush out of it but can’t place themselves in the position of the person being hit by a car for instance.

Yes, but I don’t think she’s ever been definitely been diagnosed with Asperger’s.

She says she has OCD here Why treat mental illnesses that you don’t suffer from? but I don’t remember seeing anything about Asperger’s or other autism spectrum diagnosis.

Note to Diamonds02: I commend you for driving sober, but really, you shouldn’t be driving if you’re so fatigued that you keep getting pulled over.

That too. :slight_smile:

Driving fatigued is driving impaired.

It’s also dangerous. My dad managed to total his car that way a few years ago. He didn’t get pulled over- he woke up on impact with a guard rail. Fortunately, no one was hurt, but I could easily imagine a similar scenario where that wasn’t the case. The NTHSA says drowsiness or fatigue at the wheel causes at least 100,000 car accidents per year in the US, killing 1500 people and injuring 71,000.

“By the way everyone, I’m still a middle-aged woman obsessed with boy bands!”

Prepare to be frequently disappointed in life.

I don’t think she has Asperger’s. I think she was either raised by a wire-mesh mother or is actually an alien sent to gather intel on human life.

My 17 year old would envy you SO much. We saw BTR in March at Reliant Stadium in Houston, but we were WAYYYYYY up in the nosebleed section. She still loved it! (OK, I will admit to enjoying the show myself and to having some of their music on my mp3 player!)

What could this possibly have to do with this thread?

(Apologies if a boy band honked at you early this morning)

I don’t know, but I’m suddenly overcome by Chanel and Southern Comfort fumes.

God I fucking hate having a job.

It was really growing somewhere! :slight_smile:
