Nasa is studying the guy who inspired the character Rain Man.

That's an awkward sentence, but at least it's correct.

ROTFL!!

Connie's already explained it, so I won't do it again... but this comment ("I hope you guys don't turn into theatres.") was overwhelmingly cute. Do you mind if I put it in my quotes file?

"Neurotypical" actually annoys me because it's so imprecise... what's up with people with some misc weirdness in their nervous systems that's definitely not autism? They can't be called 'neurotypical' in the strict sense and yet, everyone uses 'neurotypical' as 'non-autistic'. But heck, it's a lot better than "normal" which is, IMO, offensive to both sides.

And everyone uses it, which is important... I love the expression "heterists" (especially in Hungarian) but I manage to confuse everyone whenever I'm using it, somehow; it never caught on as much as NT did.

So I just use NT because of the consensus factor and pretend it's not short for anything. The problem is that in Hungarian, they don't shorten it so I cannot pretend. Nothing is perfect.

(Oh, how you call Gentiles in Hungarian is even worse, as Hungarian doesn't have a Hungarian word for "Gentile", "non-Jew" sounds stupid, and some Gentiles are 100% convinced "Goy" is offensive.)

Argh, that's about 100 times more for a reply than you expected. Sorry, I'm horribly verbose.

I don't mind at all! I'm flattered, actually. ^^;
