Autism being used as a reason vs an excuse

What are some good examples of either?

I think they can often get confused.

    It's never an excuse, but the expression "You're railing at me for soemthing I can;t do anything about, and which annoys me too" HAS crossed my lips.

    The absolutely funniest result of letting people know I have the 'tism, was my mate telling his Mrs to stop telling him off for something because I am Autistic and need a calmer environment... 

    There aren't many people I trust well enough to enjoy that sort of humour, but from him in that situation, it was really inclusive actually.
