growing up your favorite cartoon character was Egon Spengler from "The Real Ghostbusters" because you could relate to him
Extra points if you went to see Ghostbusters 2 and were disturbed by the fact Egon was nothing like he was in the cartoon. |

both of these apply to me  |
I discussed the question "How are you?" at an autistic spectrum support group. |
There's a movie called "The Rats are Coming! The Werewolves are Here!" by Andy Milligan. There's this extra scene that the producer forced Milligan to shoot where Monica Mooney buys killer rats from some kind of rat dealer. The rat dealer asks Monica how certain family members are. Monica asks the rat dealer why he's asking her these questions, as he really doesn't care. The rat dealer then admits that indeed, he does not care. |

You almost wore a t-shirt and jeans to your cousin's wedding.
You don't see the point in combing your hair, as it won't make the number 32 any cooler.
You realize why the number 32 is so cool.

YMBAAI...
...you see a commercial on TV for life insurance for the elderly, featuring an old man "teaching" his granddaughter to play chess, with the commercial ending with the girl putting granddad into checkmate - and find yourself yelling at the screen, because the black king's bishop clearly threatens the white queen, which is the only white piece attacking the black king! It's not checkMATE, it's just CHECK!
...huff, huff, huff... I'll be okay, I think...

The only reason you got a mobile phone, was so the school could phone you if your aspie son was having problems.
You have only one person and your mother who you would phone.
You have spoken more to yourself in your life than all the people you have ever spoken to. |

lol yes. Of the last 60 calls I made, 26 were to my mom.

Most of your voice mail messages are your mother returning your calls. |

The two most important functions on your cell phone are the clock and the caller ID.

You got hit in the face with a basketball every school year until you were no longer obliged to take gym class.
True story. |

| You have a conversation with an NT about how stupid most TV shows are, and they seem to be an ally and agree with you on all points, but then at the end of the conversation say something like, "My favorite show is coming on," and turn the TV on. |
