Those who say people don't have AS just because they have succeeded in their life or they go to parties or go to bars, have a partners, etc. are asses IMO. I think they're just jealous because an aspie is having something they can't have or don't have, so what do they do about it, say "You don't have AS" or "He/she doesn't have AS."
Heather on the top American Super Model show got that crap on WP. She saw all that and mentioned it in her blog. She never replied to any of the posts.

I have an aspie friend who likes going to a bar and drinks and he also loves going to his favorite sport games in his town and another aspie saw the picture he posted with him at the game and told him he wasn't an aspie because no aspie would go to a sports game he said. What a jerk. Glad I stopped talking to him. He was a pain in the ass on the forum we all went to and then he left and the forum was less active because he created dramas and had arguments with one of the mods. I may like them but him, he was hell annoying and I didn't care he had left.

The term for them is "Uber Aspies" or "Aspier-than-thou".  (My invention :green: )  The forum worlds are full of them.  It's the same type of peer pressure and ridicule that we complain about NT's using on us.  I like going to a bar once in a while, of course it's only certain type of bars that I can tolerate.  I liked going to sports games too, that is when time and effort allows.  Anywho I have no tolerance for those who say, "Those who don't act like this are frauds", "People who don't think like us are frauds". 

So what are we complaining about NT's for???   ::)

Very clever and appropriate.

Hey, it's a good thing they have not identified a genetic component or some of us might actually have autistic children.

Then, what the hell would we do?

:D

 :laugh:

I wonder who my daughter got it from?

Couldn't be me, since I'm married to her dad.

I couldn't have gotten it from my dad, since he was married to my mom.

 :laugh:


Seriously, Richard, we are all the same in some ways and all different in others.  Just because some of us are married or have children or attend parties, that does not mean that we don't have our own set of challenges to deal with.  Saying that married people can't have AS would be kind of like saying that anyone who has had sex can't have AS and you know that's not true.


I like Ozymandias' invention, "Aspier-than-thou."

I don't want to name names, but there was this guy we knew who said that everyone who was not exactly like him in every way was a "fake aspie."

He was kind of funny, in a way.  I wonder where he got his credentials for diagnosing people with AS, especially over the internet.




Well said Callaway. I can never get myself to be nice to people who think like that. I plussed you for it earlier.

My mum's voice gets louder and louder as she talks, until she's nearly shouting and it's hurting my ears, at which point I tell her to reduce the volume and the cycle repeats.  It's particularly annoying at night, since the neighbours must hear nearly every word she says to me.  I think it comes from years of working in schools where it was the only way to be heard.

Hey I call this conversation. Light entertainment and a de-stress from work.
you call it bitching?
I think it is kinda mindless fun... :laugh:

I didn't call it bitching. I merely replied.

But mindless is right. ;D

No I was replying to Aspie Pride. (I think that was a few bourbons ago)

Just in case anyone thinks I am in Odeon's clique, I am not. I have plans for his untimely demise so I can run off with Lucifer. If anyone thinks I am in Dunc's clique..... :lol:
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Uhm, well i guess we can continue arguing about how your not trying to act dumb and like your not in the webmonkey click if you want, frankly i think the point is already made though :hahaha:

But, but wait a minute!

I want to be in your clique.

 :eyelash:

If I dis' Odeon by calling him a Swede, would that get me in or do I have to be diagnosed?

*slap*

Outside. You and me. NOW!

ok lets get one thing streight here. i dont know HOW many times i have to do this or say this, but this is gonna be the last fuckin time. i am not jelouse of anyone who is higher functioning living with aspergers, frankly i think its cool if people can live sucsessfully with it. but honestly i dont think everyone here has arseburgers. this is my opinion, and since i like feeding off peoples insecurites wich is what your allowing me to do everyone, you would think you would get it. but no! and if you do have arseburgers why do you care what i think? it only makes me moar suspicious of your diagnosis if you argue otherwise




:yawn:

Do you have an actual point hidden somewhere?


Of course he does.

He is feeding on us. You are insecure, but he doesn't care. He is almost full, but not jealous. You (maybe me too) DO NOT have some kind of disfigured burger arse, but he does.
His psychiatrist wants to suck is dick. Agates are available in fire. His holds parents guilty for his diapers.
There may be more but I'm too stupid.

i get invited to parties.  got an invitation this morning, to one my of student's 21st.  i won't go - can't think why she wants an old git like me there.

as for getting married...  well, that won't happen either.  i've never managed to keep a relationship going for very long, not one that i wanted to, anyway.

I was hoping someone would take the ball and run with it!!

You do know that responding directly to what someone else has posted using such cloaked vehicles as ambiguous prods, double-speaking innuendos, allusions to some greater realm, implications of disparagement or insinuation of some misty defamation probably makes you susceptible to being vilified as a Fake Aspie, right?
