That was just a lie for attention. It was cool while it lasted though, what with all the attention I was getting.

Asperger's syndrome is nothing to joke about, one way or another, and I really don't appreciate the stigma this is causing. I rarely insult people like this, but you are an idiot (I'd like to say something worse.) You can ask bornlie, it takes a LOT for me to talk to people like that.
No, you're thinking of Tourette's. That's the one where you get to say rude words. Though when you think about it, ass burgers actually sounds like something someone with Tourette's might say, so maybe there is a link.Quote:

He means using the fact that you have Asperger's as an excuse to say you didn't know any better because you don't understand social norms or emotions.Quote:

Do you think maybe he's lying about not having it just so people will think he's more "normal" or do you think he was lying the whole time? Either way, he's a liar.
No clue where I was going with this. In reality, I was diagnosed with Asperger's.
exactly! You hit it right on the button!Quote:

After seeing her for a couple months, she told me she believes I have Asperger's and explained why in detail. I asked her how sure and she said sorry but she's "quite sure".
Before you get too carried away, note that the only thing I was dishonest about was it being a doctor. Probably because Justin got an attitude with me and I didn't want to give him any room to work with. I really don't care. This is a new diagnosis for me, and Justin is a dick, so I guess I didn't respond to those particular pressures well.
So before you jerks get all giddy, all this means is that I'm not medically diagnosed with it. Doesn't mean I don't have it, and there's no reason to think I do. And if you notice, there's zero reason to suspect that I had any intention of misleading people initially.
