I have Aspergers syndrome which is a high functioning form of autism, I can understand how the use of the word in a derogatory form can be offensive to someone who has a first hand experience dealing with someone with austism, but for me personally, I just laugh it off, sometimes I use the term myself, sometimes I have my own moments where I am clearly autistic as shit.
Obviously though I am a big supporter of people with autism seeing as I have it myself, I dont see that there is anything wrong with me, I am just different and think differently and the way I perceive things is different, but I refuse to let it ruin my day if someone calls me autistic as an insult, they just jelly of my superior Aspie brain power.

My little brother has Aspergers. He can beat me at almost anything he sets his mind too. That Aspie brain power ain't no joke
-
I too have Asperger syndrome. Asperger is actually on the Autism spectrum, but it is not a form of autism. It is however, in the same disorder classification family, PDD.

I have no qualms with you, however. I agree with your post in general.

I knew a girl that had what you have. She didn't pick up on visual cues. Like say if you're annoyed when someone is talking to you and your body language actually shows it. You'd have to actually tell her, "I don't want to talk right now." She took piano lessons from my mom. -blam!-ing excelled at it too!

Edited by RedTurkeyBaster: 3/7/2016 4:46:21 PMHow autistic. But really. It's not an insult. It's just more of a trendy internet word. Like fa[u]gg[/u]ot. I call my friends fa[u]gg[/u]ot, but it's not an insult in my mind.

Can you explain a moment where you were "autistic as shit"? Generally curious

normally social situations for the most part.
