I am only recently diagnosed but I had a wonderful moment last week.
I was 'explaining' my AS to a disbelieving friend/good acquaintance.
I was mentioning some of the traits (and trying desperately to allow him to say something) when I go to 'eye contact'.
At the beginning of the diatribe we had eye contact and then (I am never conscious of the moment when I actually look away) I realised I was looking away (and at nothing in particular)
I moved my head back with my hand, raised my eyebrows to communicate humor and started laughing. |

| I ran into a parked SUV. My chiropractor had a rough time adjusting me after that. |

| I blurted out "here" when attendace was taken at jury duty...before they called my name. The pause told me she was ready to call me but couldn't pronounce my last name. I had the whole place rolling! But...i am not one to like being the center of attention, so it was quite embarrassing. |

My full first name is Georgina, and some teachers call me Georgia instead of Georgina, so I got used to answering to any variation of my name (what I should have done was refuse to answer to anything but Georgina or Gina). But in my science class, there was a girl called Georgia, and I accidentally answered to her name instead of my own.

I think it would have to be the time that my teacher told me I was wrong and I responded with something along the lines of "Are you stupid ?" and then explained my point in what was probably a very aggressive tone of voice. Every single person in the class looked shocked and that's when I realized I probably said something wrong. I had a few more of very similar situations, where I said completely "unacceptable" things to teachers and people always found it funny afterwards. Somehow I never got in trouble for any of them  |

I'm very bad about correcting authority figures. They usually don't like it.
The funny moments are mostly due to the fact I don't follow the pecking order like everyone else, and I tend to be bluntly honest, even when it's not to my advantage. |

Last semester, I would take the stairs on the way to a class, but take the elevator going out. Why? The door to the stairs had "Fire exit: keep closed" so I wouldn't go through it, even though I knew it was the same door I opened on the way to class, until I saw someone else do it about two weeks later. I still can't explain why, haha.

It's the reason why I wouldn't last more than a day in the army. |

I used to think those signs meant you have to keep the door permanently closed without exception. I wondered what was the point of putting a door there in the first place if you couldn't open it.

Once in a market, there was pork pie for sale. I told my dad I wanted one, my dad said "it's with jelly." Now, he meant a special kind of jelly for the pork pie, but I took it literally and thought a disgusting pork pie with fruity jelly. And my dad could tell I thought that by the look on my face.
