I sometimes laugh if something isn't funny to me but I can see that the joke teller's intention was for it to be humorous. This is typically around friends. My genuine laughs are few and far between. However, I understand humor enough to make NTs laugh, and it helps me fit in - so whatever works I g... |

I don't quite understand why anyone would take The Onion seriously.
It's like flipping over to Comedy Central and thinking Steven Colbert is a legitimate republican. |

I've had a few stalkers I thought were friends.
...and at school I'm really only interested in coexisting and getting home, so people that talk to me are the only ones I make friends with.
It happens, people are people. |
