Your Opinion on Me — Page 4

There does run the risk of Special Snowflake Syndrome™, but with the right approach it works out. Sometimes kids need that boost to really go for their passions, fixations, whathaveyou.

Sorry for taking this so off-topic. I like talking about this sort of thing.

Oh hey, me too.

While that gives you a little more klout in speaking such way… there could have been a better way to phrase it. Though I will say I think you were more polite than Jeebus, who has since [REDACTED].

I’ve redacted my redaction. I think it should stay, if only so future generations of internet archaeologists will know what’s going on.

What I said could’ve been phrased more gracefully, sure, but I still stand by it. It’s an opinion based on many years of living with aspergers myself, and many dealings with others who have had it. I didn’t mean to be an armchair psychologist, and I’m not saying anything about yhwx as a person, but from what I’ve seen in his posts, that’s the impression I’ve gotten.

And so I can’t be accused of lying;

Interesting. I don’t think we could not tell her, it’s part of what makes her who she is and who we love.

Indeed, especially since I assume she is very young, she’ll probably need some sort of boost, as I did. Eventually the difficulties associated with my Asbergers faded into the background, or at least weren’t as noticeable to an outsider, and in fact it surprised my closest friend when I mentioned it to him a few years ago. But my folks still treated me as a sort of anomaly, which kind of turned sour after awhile. My experience isn’t really indicative of yours at all, but since you replied I felt the need to further explain myself. I didn’t mean for the topic to sort of switch into a much more personal thing, I don’t think I’ve said this to anyone I actually know personally. Here’s wishing well to you, though.

I’ve always suspected that I have bipolar disorder, but my parents never took me to a psychiatrist and I’ve yet to have a mental health examination at any point in my adult life.

Wow, I didn’t realize how common Aspergers is here. Feels a little weird.

It would be weird if it wasn’t.

I’m just a fricking nutter, I won’t lie … I’m not certified as such mind you but any ailments aside, I am no better or worse than anyone in this forum. If one perceives themselves to be more or less than others, it is them that probably needs some additional professional assistance to help them through.

I wish yhwx was more like Simon & Garfunkel’s best album… Bookends.

Don’t do drugs, unless you’re with me.

Who cares what we think of you? Clearly you don’t, based on all the times you’ve ignored our pleas to stop posting so frequently.

That’s right Jay, it’s another way to fuel his addiction.

My opinion on you…

…used to be: I like you but you post waaaaay too much.

…now is: I like you but you post waaaaay too little.

So yes.

That’s interesting. I’m a little surprised, to be honest. 😉

The only way I can really answer this is to say that, I support which ever choice makes you happy, regardless of which one you go with. I know I got caught up in some of the shenanigans when you were posting before. For that I apologize. It is not good form to heckle new members and no matter what anyone says, reading humor in posts on the internet, doesn’t always reveal it as actual humor.

Knowing better and being better are two different things entirely but they should go hand in hand. As humans, being fallible, is not something any of us can cure but we all suffer from it.

Anyways, I look forward to seeing you around even if it is in a limited capacity, or a greater one.

Cheers!!!

Sure, why not? You never caused me any problems as far as I can recall.
