| I haven't been here much in years, but I've been on other ASD forums before this one and got some pretty nasty treatment. I've never really seen that here. |

| Yes... but kids in the early grades didn't notice so much. From 4th grade on, my life turned and never resumed its former course... in that making friends would always be a struggle and I would never again be able to feel that I really fit in. For a little while, I thought I was just another kid. |

| I don't know whether I do, but my daughter believes she does because sometimes she'll just lose what's being said to her. Not a little of it, either... words just stop meaning anything. |

| Fortunately I don't live near them. My mom says I'm Autistic but then when I complain because a waitress puts her hand right on my back, she tells me there are things you just have to deal with. I know NTs who would be put out by having a waitress put a hand right on them. I think that I'm Autistic ... |

| Heyas... I haven't been on here in a while but I now have a question about getting assessments for my kids. The oldest is 18 and I don't know where to take her. We're in Orange County CA and her doctor said to call up the medical group and ask for a therapist who specializes in ADD/ADHD evaluation (... |

| Wow, I'm just surprised to find so many people who feel the way I do about it! I figured I was just easily offended. We used to watch it when it was new, and there are things about the show that are very funny, scenes and lines we still quote. But I agree that it is visually unappealing... I underst... |

I guess I could see myself doing to same thing, but it still hurts. Mind you, you'd think a struggling band would hesitate to bl... |

| I just blocked from subscribing to my favorite band's Youtube channel. I'm crushed... It's a small band, so one of them had to have done it. I know I can still see their videos and love their music. I just wonder why I always have to end up on the outside. I didn't get political or anything. I thoug... |

| LOL! I know they even make that song sound good, but I already know it too well to be able to stand even their version! I've loathed that song since it was new... I do watch it to see The Spine push Upgrade away with his foot, though. |

| I just don't like the sound of it as a rule. It's hard to like one genre exclusively because there will always be a large amount of the same thing fringed by a few uniquely talented stand-outs. I don't do the "anything with a beat" thing. If music becomes common to me, I don't want to hear it. But I... |

| I've been thinking about introducing this band here... they're my latest passion. The premise is that they're a band of singing robots built in 1896, performing with the assistance of a variety of humans. They glitch sometimes, and don't quite get human behavior, and have sweet harmonies besides... ... |

Holy moo, it's been a long time since I heard that one!
I'm listening to this one again, and I'm gonna buy the mp3 of their cover, if only to support the band:
