Hey kids, get into the game! EVERYBODY is guessing at a cause for autism, so why not us? And the best part is, medical science can't prove you wrong! Who needs medical science, anyway? Speculate away.

I'll go first:

I was huffing glue when the spiritual entity known as Scotchgard told me that autistics are Red People. Red People tend to show up as "red flags" to NTs, that's why they're called Red. Also, because many of them are fond of communism. They are here to save the planet from the harmful effects of acetone!

Dr. No injected me with a secret vaccine from the USSR and made me autistic! That b@st@rd! I need to sue SMERSH! Who's with me?

i can sue people with you if you want, but the causes of MY autism are very different. i think i got it at girl scouts camp, because all we ate was potatoes, and they made us sleep out in the cold. as everybody knows, :
New research is even more promising to potato lovers. A recent study reported in Nutrition Research concluded that cooled potato resulted in a significantly lower postprandial [after meal] blood glucose and area under the glucose curve than hot potatoes. (source: david mendoza, phd in potatoes, his website: http://www.mendosa.com/cold_potatoes.htm ) so the lack of blood sugar for months at a time and the sleeping in the cold made my mind numb to almost anything.
the end.

The Nazis, bless their cursed souls, tried to create super scientists to go with the super soldiers. It's no coincidence that Hans Asperger and Leo Kanner looked up to the same German psychiatrist.

It didn't work though, as for every super scientist obsessed over rockets, you'd have one obsessed over a cartoon character.

All their test subjects were "released" by an allied bombing raid by total chance, and they traveled the globe, like people do.

The end (or is it the beginning?).

New research suggests that it was cats that caused autism. They needed humans they could relate to, so they created us.

Solar flares. The more active Sol is, the greater the incidence of ASD's. Either that, or it's from listening to Vogon poetry.

Autism genes were planted in our ancestors as part of a plot by the reptilians to take over the world! 8O

I believe it was caused by my husband being a religious fanatic. Neither myself or my kids wish to hear it so we stim to escape.
