Care to elaborate?

Temper tantrums about stupid things.

Ah. Thanks for explaining.

For me it depends on the person. I don't like to say I get along better with aspies or NTs because it depends. I have met NTs who I seem to get along with very well and I seemed more NT with them but that was because they were not quite normal either. Some of them are also quirky or have problems that are AS like. Plus some are open mined and don't mind quirks.

Every individual is different some aspies are good to get along some aren't this applies to NT's as well.

I get along more with Aspies and other unusual people than I do with NTs. I find that NTs expect too much and they don't accommodate at all. I'm not saying that NTs should cater to me. All I'm saying is that it would be nice to live in a world that accepts everybody as they are, instead of having false norms that everybody has to follow according to things such as race, gender, age, generation, nationality and class.
