Just found a website with amusing anecdotes compiled from the Internet about aspergers.
So, you might be an aspie if....
your most hated 5 word phrase is "Don't worry it's close enough" (yes, but it's not correct)
you count your time at the check out counter as social interaction.
you get extremely disappointed in yourself if you don't know something when you need to know it because you really "SHOULD" know that.
you spend hours trying to figure out how someone could find a meaning in your words that was not there.
you find talking to yourself enjoyable, actually more enjoyable than talking to other people.
someone asks "How are you?" and you actually explain your current physical & mental state to them.
you wonder why people ask you how your day was, but then they walk away before you have finished telling them?
the biggest help a store assistant can be is to not ask "Can I help you?"
you edit a post 6 times just for typos and spelling mistakes because you're paranoid someone will misinterpret what you say.
you're reading this thread on your iPhone while someone is trying to talk to you.
there are holes in all your clothes where the tags used to be...
you don't understand how someone could seriously use *all* of the talk time minutes on their cell phone plan in only a month.
you try to use exactly 500 words when asked to write a 500 word essay.
your normal facial expression is your poker face.
you wonder why everyone's favorite character/actor in films/TV shows is always the one who acts like an Aspie , yet Aspies aren't people's favorite in real life.
on the one hand you think you are the most interesting person you know, but not too many other people are trying to get to know you.
your boss tells you to do something and you can't do it until you know "why", because you are not going to waste your time on doing something that doesn't make sense.
you almost go into a panic when you discover that a picture or other wall-mounted item is hanging 1° off perpendicular, and you feel compelled to straighten it out, even if it's not in your own home.
you laugh when people say funny things like “Trust me.”
And finally, my favourite;
you get offended when people say "you think you know everything" because they used the word "think" and are therefore implying that you don't.
There were more, but I picked the ones I identified with and found amusing. Which ones are you?
