*cracks up laughing*
Sep. 27th, 2004 09:23 pmThis is in response to a comment that, apparently, my view of the world (which she believes to be erroneous) is entirely based on the fact that I'm "only 21"
I love the part about how autism does not form a cloud over one's social judgment. Maybe I'm wrong. It often happens. AM I wrong in saying that this is bullshit crap?
Edit: I just checked the DSM. Asperger's/autism requires, among other things, a "lack of social and emotional reciprocity". Wouldn't that entail problems with social judgment?

Usualy it's cause the person I'm arguing with has "fox news" linked or listed as an interest.
