*headscratch* In myself? Or just generally, as something that exists?

*waves* I followed you here from Lenore's blog - I'm LauraL over there. Hello. :)

[elenbarathi.livejournal.com]

I clickied NO. There is no autism. There is only Zule.

*snickers arcanely, spinning around with gleeful abandon in my big spinny computer chair*

Generally, as something that exists.

[conuly]

Howdy!

[xianghua.livejournal.com]

I clicked no since all us autistics are supposed to be lacking in self-awareness. :P

Umm... You can't really be reading this (your journal) and NOT be.

April is autism awareness month. I'm Doing My Part.

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

Its only the first day, and I'm already sick of it. "Your own child is autistic, you should speak up about it". No thank you. Let the actually educated people talk about it. Because all I will say is "They said he wouldn't be potty trained anytime before he was 4. he was dry by 3 years old. They said he wouldn't be able to speak clearly for years, he speaks well enough that outsiders know what he is saying now. So what the hell do I know?"

MY CHILD IS NOT YOUR DAMNED POSTER CHILD JUST BECAUSE HE'S CUTE AND DARK BLONDE HAIRED AND BLUE EYED. BACK OFF, TOWN OF MINE.

Edited for cute-kid icon.

*dies* You won that one

[davidkevin.livejournal.com]

I've been aware of it since 1968.

[ksol1460.livejournal.com]

Yes, but is autism aware of you?

[conuly]

Yes, but are you aware? I need to do my job!

[conuly]

Gosh, I don't know.

[conuly]

Hm. I don't think I can take credit for that, then.

[conuly]

Speak up about it to whom? These people obviously know, so why are they complaining?

[conuly]

You might have warned about the creepy crawly!

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

They're having some stupid Autism Awareness assembly or some shit around here.

[tungol.livejournal.com]

Hmm, and would it be a good thing or a bad thing if it were?

...
And how would someone go about informing it?

[conuly]

Who's running it?

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

I don't even know, I was asked by his speech therapist to speak and if his photo could be used for a pamphlet for it and I was like "lol hell no".

[conuly]

It might be AS, and are you aware that they're evil?

[conuly]

By the by, did you get pied or otherwise pranked today on neo?

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

Well aware! I ran into an ASshole while bringing Tater to occupational therapy one day and they were just...arhghghgghg. AVOID AVOID AVOID.

God I hate this town sometimes.

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

Yes! Poor Annika_Rose was pied. :(

[cumaeansibyl.livejournal.com]

Of what?

[conuly]

Now, the thing to say, every time, is "They only give 4% of their money to help autistic children and their families. Where does the rest of the money go?" Just keep harping on that one subject, because nobody, but nobody can argue with it.

[conuly]

YES!

I mean, uh, what a surprise.

[conuly]

Just say yes so I can check you off.

[conuly]

Put an ad in the paper for three consecutive days.

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

RAGE

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

*glares*

[conuly]

I was trying to get you the pie background! *innocent*

[cumaeansibyl.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, I'm aware. Geez, you autistic people have no sense of humor.

(Or I'm not funny. This is also possible.)

[conuly]

Six of one, half dozen of the other.
