This is a statement I worry about often. Not because I am concerned that I then need to convince someone, but rather, I just know that in the moment, I’ll probably more than likely forget the quick witted responses that point out the ignorance of such statements.

because I know autistic people. All of them? You must be popular!
because you’re forgetful (maybe with the details you find important, but I can remember the intricate pattern of the bark of the tree you were standing next to when the apparently important event happened, or that there were 18 unnecessary screw holes in the overhead beam in the room we were talking in).
because you understand sarcasm. Yes, an autistic person has never joked before…
