I have lost access to my old login details due to defunct email addresses and forgotten passwords, so I'm starting anew, I used this site very often in my late teens (different username tho). And I'm back after reading through old posts recently and getting nostalgic. I consider that account a time capsule. It's nice to see this website remain so consistent, threads from 16 years ago are still active!! Impressive. I mean of course an autism forum has barely changed. :wink:

Anyway hi, it'll be nice to meet new faces and catch up with old ones. I'm from the UK, about to turn 33, diagnosed with the sperg in 2004 and have struggled through cycles of denial/resentment and acceptance ever since. But I think I'm stabilising with age. My hobbies/interests are weight training, mermaiding, furry fandom, great apes, evolutionary anthropology, doll collecting, among other things I like to dip my toes into.

I haven't come across "The Sperg" before.

Can we use it as a verb too?

It's a bit of an old meme term, I'm showing my age a bit. It is also commonly a verb, eg, "sperging" and "sperg out".
