I subbed.
I used to feel like an idiot doing the videos, but now I've got used to it. I don't bother with a script, I just turn the cam on; I'm beyond caring.

Yeah but people say my voice is disgusting, so I have to try a bit harder :p And I stutter also so that will be a problem.

You voice is NOT 'disgusting' in the least. It is authoritative and clear spoken. I rather liked your voice. The nerves were obvious though because you were gabbling a bit and I could see your discomfort.

You deliver your lines something like a school teacher... but then, you do have Aspergers and that is a trait, or so I understand - I do it also... with me, I tend to lecture at people rather than converse with them - lol - and I'm not saying that was your problem in the video... just that I recognise I'm far from perfect in my delivery myself. Crumbs, this is all tempting me to do a YouTube also :o

Like you, I do not adlib. I'd probably write myself a short script and either memorise it or read it like you were doing.

I'd like to see a Kosmo & Fiona video collaboration someday. That would be cool!

Well done Fiona.  I can't stand to be on camera...  a photograph is bad enough, but a video where I have to talk...    :hide:


It makes me nervous just thinking about it.

It also makes me feel kind of bad... like I feel the need to give you a hug because you just went through that.
I came to this world with nothing
and I leave with nothing but love,
everything else is just borrowed.

Fuck it, we'll do it live.

Well done, I am sure it will help promote your site/forums.    I can understand you just fine. 
:P   Internets are super serious.

You sound panicked to be honest if anything, your speech was a little too quick for my liking. It was probably over-prepared as well, never read out a speech verbatim. Just outline your speech instead.

You looked fine in the video but what do I know. I can't read body language very well so lot of aspies come off as normal in the videos.
But you did talk a little too fast. I talk fast too. But it was hard to understand what word you said in there but I knew it was "Aspergers."

I liked it a lot. :plus:

But Aspergers sounded like you said it Asperjers. ??
