Personally, I thought this was really funny. Does anybody find this offensive? Aspie friend of mine found it funny but "jerky" in parts. I don't mind self-deprecating humor, as long as it's actually funny, and I could kind of relate to some of this.

I saw this a few years ago, but I think it's hilarious.

Very Happy (Oh no, wait, that's the wrong emoticon...& I'm not kidding because I really do need to hold the cursor over the emoticon itself to know which emotive state it is). This one: Laughing

Ok, that video is hilarious! I can see where, amongst the general public, it could be inappropriate. But amongst friends, it's Cool

Thanks Juggernaut.

I thought it was hilarious, too. When I first started doing research on AS after I started to suspect it, I came across this and I started crying because I was laughing so hard. I love the eye contact thing in the intro. Laughing

This is my first time seeing it and it was hilarious. I wasn't at all offended.

It should be a miniseries. It'd be the best thing on cable and I might actually start watching something other than cartoons again! Laughing
