questioning the fact that i have asperger's just because i act like a twat on a website forum, you don't know me you cunt how can you tell what i'm like IRL. you put my social difficulties down to me being a twat IRL yet i'm perfectly nice to everyone i meet, making judgements about people you don't know is not right.
just because i haven't been diagnosed doesn't meen i haven't got it, a psychiatrist i used to see when i was young said that i had it (in their opinion) and my mum who probably knows a far sight more about it than you do, also thinks i've got it. i find your attitude very insulting because if i do indeed have asperger's it's caused me alot of trouble in my life, mixing with other people and undestanding them has always been an issue for me, leading to depression and anxiety.
i apologise to the rest of DiS becuase i didn't want to post another thread about this, yes_ gave me no real choice, he needed to know want an absolute cunt he's been.
Mirri mach 2
Haha.
I half typed out a serious reply to this thread... but nah. Suck my kiss.
:D
'Suck My Kiss' was very effective
you should probably also know
that alot of people don't get diagnosed until later in life, so you're just plain wrong.
STRAWBERRY WRONG
Touch my ass.
Actually do it.
fuck the fuck off and send a pm
the rest of the board needed to know
what a cunt he's been.
I have eyes
you cunt
they can judge for themselves you massive fail
they wouldn't have noticed
except for the people who got into a reasoned discussion with him (see Mirri)
and didn't try and start a public slagging match. now go away.
^
and to your reply: most people do read other people's posts.
I agree
I dislike both posters, but I'm with the Galatic Prince at the moment.
laaaaaaaaaaame
pm?
Who's a what now?
DRAMA!
christ
yeah to be fair
if you only want yes_ to get this message, you should have PM'd him. s'all I got to say
Disagree
he's had ten tons of shit ripped out of him in the last week by people on the boards who all think they know so much better than him about a medical condition, probably with little personal experience about it, just making judgements and guesses and being a bit opinionated.
Someone states publicly that they think he's a twat, the guy's got a right to respond to it publicly, in my opinion.
well you'd know all about making private disputes public
wouldn't you?
*jacko.gif*
No point directing your sarcasm at me.
We're clear on how you feel about me. This isn't about me. It's about defending the right to reply to people as a general rule.
Yeah but
you would say that, wouldn´t you?
heh
^
it's not as though people PM me, everything is done publicly.
and i guess i hit breaking point, it was the last straw.
YOU SURE SHOWED HIM
Yeah I understand.
Hug x
Is one of the symptoms of Aspergers
oversensitivity to what people think about you on internet forums?
i went to a fundraiser for some autism charity
there was a blues brothers covers band and all the members had asperger's. they were really good
Do you really think that a public message board
is really the best place to be airing your opinions on what another user has said, regardless of how hurtful you might think what they've said is. Honestly I'm not going to take sides here, I don't know anything approaching the full story. However surely it would be more constructive if you sent a pm to yes_ about all this, rather than letting all and sundry know. It strikes me as a way of attempting to create unnecessary divisons. So for the sake of the rest of us, send a fucking pm next time round.
Maybe he just didn´t realize the trouble it would cause
because of all his aspergers.
Can we just stop this now.
Cheers.

Asperger's Syndrome thread?
I have been avoiding it since I read it yesterday - it was total car crash DiS.
- Frank, chill the fuck out. If you think you have the syndrome sort it out but don't take major offence to what anyone says on here. This isn't SERIOUS BUSINESS after all.
- Josh, I have no idea what is going on but if you have annoyed someone (even if it is down to them being insensitive, you really should apologise. No?
WTF am I replying this for? Well, I am bored and this as close to DRAMA we are getting unless things between me and <insertrandomDiSuser> crank up a notch.
*sigh*
read what he said.
it was ridiculous, wheter this is an internet forum or not. it was basically i know what your like IRL even though i've never met you and i know all about this syndrome and you haven't got it.
i do actually get offended when people DiSmiss
what i say though, i can see where frank is coming from. but i don't think this is the right way to go about it.
v\
fuck you you stupid sheeldz
i quite like yes_
When I was in Sweden
in our hotel room (which had a kitchen), there was a bottle of washing-up liquid called ´Yes´. And so I wrote an underscore after it. This made Fiona think I was REALLY cool.
:D
i'm honoured.
You are
REALLY cool, Tom. You shouldn't feel like you need Fiona's approval to validate you as a cool person.
:D
i'm honoured.
THESE THREADS ARE SO SHIT THEY MAKE ME WANT TO KILL MYSELF
and yes_ is well sound.
Ok, serious reply time:
I never indicated in my posts that I thought I knew better about your condition than anybody that knows you does. I said that your persona on here didn't show many signs of aspergers, and that you probably didn't have it if you havn't been diagnosed with it, "probably" being the key word.
Though this thread not only displays lack of social awareness and judgement but a profound ability to completely misunderstand people, both of which are symptoms of aspergers, so I eat my words.
Congratulations, You have aspergers.
pwned.
you were dismissing my claims
based on my personality on DiS, when you don't even know me.
He knows your personality on DiS though.
but he needs to know my personality IRL.
and he was asuming that he did, he basically didn't read anything i had written about the subject and just bardged in thinking he knew everything.
He just said that he doesn't know everything
and I wouldn't suggest that he claims that he "knows" you in real life when you don't know him and you are assume all sorts of shit left right and centre.
I'm just saying...
i think i'm allowed to after what he posted
if he wants to get personal and everything.
You are but he isn't?
Confusing me now. What exaclty is this thread about then?
you only know his personality on dis as well though
and yet here you are saying he's OFFICIALLY A CUNT.
Hypocrisy ftw!
^
nope
it's a very cuntish thing to do, regardless of whether it's a forum or not.
Hmm.
I'd say more patronising than cuntish - although the two may sit closely together. But I was pretty fucking patronising when I was his age too, almost certainly (what a patronising thing to say! but yeah I just remember that's all). Swings and roundabouts innit?
ps:
I wouldn't bother staying in this thread trying to defend yourself to the death Frank. It will just wind you up even more. I can see why you got pissed off. But it's the weekend, do some chilling out!
no, you're wrong
the internet is not real life. you cannot judge someone's entire personality based on something they do or say online, because they are very likely to act different in real life, whether they think about it or not. some things you don't say in real life but have no problem saying online. i know im different at least, i don't know yes_ so wouldnt know how correct this is in his case but it's the principle. by your logic it's fine for you to say stupid cuntish things about him, but not for him to do the same about you. i'm sorry but it doesn't work that way. if you're going to pretend like you have these amazing morals and are better than someone else then at least have some consistency, it's not very convincing otherwise.
but surely this show his true self
because he's not got any reservation about saying how he feels. i act stupidly on here but i would never question someone about their serious real life issues, this is the difference.
if you don't want your real life issues being questioned on the internet
simply don't post about them on the internet. it's not rocket science.
no, you're so wrong.
you can discuss issues without being patronizing towards others, yes_ blatantly doesn't know how to do this.
and you do?
i'm not convinced
i do it all the time on DiS
I said something similar last week
Difficulty drawing distinctions between fantasy and real life is a symptom of...
his personality transcends regular boundrys
where you can't judge people on what they've written on forums, he's THAT MUCH of a bastardo
Of course I don't know you, you twunt.
I based my claims on your internet persona, claims which I believe are well justified. Again, the qualifying words like "probably", "maybe" and a key phrase from my post in another thread "I don't know you, but..." should have shown you that, shock horror, I have absolutely no interest in your (no doubt shining) "IRL PERSONALITY".
Have you ever seen that famous clip of the girl on Jerry Springer who wanted to have kids aged 14? For the sake of argument we'll call her Jane. The voiceover said "And here's Jane! At only 14 she has slept with over 30 men and wants to have children! And here she is!".
She walks out onto the stage and the crowd "BOO!" her. Her response: "Y'ALL DON'T KNOW ME! Y'ALL DON'T KNOW ME! FUCK Y'ALL!".
By constantly going on about how you are a bit of a nob due to your undiagnosed by ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN MEDICAL CONDITION that alleviates you from any responsibility, you basically just walked onto Jerry Springer with a t shirt on saying "I take it up the arse at nazi discos AND LOVE IT".
Y'ALL DON'T KNOW ME.
shut up
go and moan about not having a girlfriend, or how good you are at playing guitar, or how you're a vegetarian. You're legit pathetic - one of the worst people i've ever encountered.
Don't care man.
I'm better than you.
That seems pretty uncalled for to me,
you just seem to be wading in here with your own little completely inconsequential axe to grind. If you have issues with yes_ either pm him or just shut up about it full stop. Throwing a few shitty little insults about like that achieves nothing. Now please shut up, and stop all this petty little bitching.
fuck off
"well justified"
why? so everyone is the same on the internet as they are IRL? i don't care how you try and defend yourself you still asumed things about me you shouldn't have and doubted my claims even know you no nothing about me or my situation. it's not just you plenty of people have done it, if i was harsh calling you a cunt then i'm sorry but it was the last straw you don't deserve 100% of the blame.
YOU'RE CONTRADICTING YOURSELF SO MUCH IT'S NOT EVEN FUNNY
maybe you just don't understand where i'm coming from
maybe you just dont understand simple logic
That was on Maury wasn't it?
Classic scenes.
Oh I thought it was Springer
consider myself well and truly "shown" then.

Man
this is sad
I'm leaving.
This site is a giant pile of horseshit now, full of complete and utter tools, and you should all be ashamed.
bye,
come back, you're pretty ace.
*come back sometime
yeah
I'm kind of ashamed for pushing you over the edge with my "cuntishness".
pfft
at least start a HYPERDRAMZ thread about it
:(
you could at least post a list of the complete and utter tools
i'm all paranoid now.
i think basically everyone that has joined in the last 6-10 months
it really has gone downhill hasn't it?
ps i like yes_
phew! not me then!
yeah, it is a bit rubbish nowadays but i wouldn't blame it all on new users. my posts have been rubbish for the last three and a bit years.
that includes me.
:(
There were some complete
and utter tools who used to post here and don't anymore. It's a natural cycle. Maybe there are a few more now than before, but there are far more posters so it's not that surprising.
tobythecat
you're on the list
bye!
Oh no
Not only has a good poster left, he's left with a fairly embarrassing post that will make coming back quite difficult.
he'll be back.
I would guess the same,
but I won't enjoy how far between his legs his tail will be. He doesn't deserve that indignity.
I give him until the next last.fm thread...
You guys, Phil´s eating his own hand
lets get this on the newsletter
what's happened to the newsletter anyway?
I have not had a newsletter in a long time.
Threads like this are probably why :S
So - what does everyone thing - 'Alligator' or 'Boxer'? Hmmmm?
the back room
Sorry to say this
but it was ill judged of you to bring it up on here. Not that this stuff should never be spoken about on the internet; you just don't seem to handle talking about it in this context very well.
Regardless of what condition you have, Yes' position is reasonable; self-diagnosis is potentially harmful, and clinical AS is relatively rare.
And now you're talking of getting a diagnosis for the sake of proving a point; well that really sums it up. See a health professional if you're in genuine need (and in which case, why on -Earth- have you not been before all this?); if not, please don't waste the time of an already overstretched service.
it's not self diagnosis
i've been to see people about it before it just hasn't been diagnosed, i've learned to adapt reasonably well but it's been a struggle to say the least.
so in short, learn to read what i post and stop being judgemental.
Oh the irony.
You are not the only one to see it.
I've read your posts
very well over the last couple of days, thanks. You seem utterly unwilling or unable to engage on the issue; this isn't about being judgemental. It's about maintaining a rational head, and taking appropriate remedial action. I have told you time and time again that autism is a spectrum; when you say you've 'seen people about it' it's very likely that they were pointing out sub-clinical aspects of your personality.
What do you think is going to be different this time? Are you going to 'play the part' of the high-functioning autistic when you go in there? This is why this stuff is potentially harmful; you going into a psychologist's office with this pre-conceived idea of your own psychological seriously limits the help they can give you. You have a very odd approach to your own mental health.
What you're describing is pretty common
It's not that odd.
I'm not saying that the
self-fulfilling prophecy thing is odd; there's a lot of that about, admittedly. It's more his approach to actually using/engaging with the mental health services.
i don't want it
i'm just convinced that i have it in some form.
*your own psychological problems
i think my mum knows me a little better than you do
are you saying that she wants her eldest son to have asperger's? i think that's all i have to say really.
This is not about knowing you
it's about making an assessment of probabilities based on the information given.
If you go and see a psychologist today, he or she will not 'know you' either. He/she will assess you coldly and rationally, assessing the probabilities of you having a certain condition based on the information you give.
yes and i would be completely honest
i don't want to mess up my diagnosis. it just might be hard to diagnose me successfully now that i'm 21 and have learned to adapt reasonably well. my mum was trying to get me the help when i was younger but it wasn't easy to diagnose back then, people seemed to know very little about it.
If I can give you a
proper piece of actual advice for a sec, I would leave off talking about it on here. This is a place where even the most personal of problems is reduced to 'banter,' and i can't see it being massively helpful to your own mode of thinking.
There are other dedicated forums out there that might be more helpful (so it's not as if the internet can't be a reasonable form of support), but I really think you need a very thick skin to talk about such things on here.
Which is odd
because it never used to be like that. Definitely changed during the time between me leaving and coming back. There are things I would have posted before I definitely wouldn't now. Which is probably a good thing.
yeah, i agree
i obviously take things to heart far too easily. i only replied because i had a personal experience of the subject, i didn't think it would end up causing this many problems.
^ Best response in this thread so far.
nope
they've actually read and replied to my posts in the asperger's thread and they still don't have a clue.
i leave this thread for an hour
and it's actually gotten more embarrassing
again: "christ."
I think everyone posting in it saying "this is embarrassing"
are pretty embarrassing themselves, to be honest. If you're above these threads you shouldn't feel the need to post in them, aye? We all know you're all acheingly effete and nonchalent, it's cool.
oh for christ's sake
Well that showed me.
Disdained to fuck.
okay, well
i think people who say people who say "this is embarrassing" are pretty embarrassing are pretty embarrassing themselves.
do you say, it's all rendered effectively meaningless because we're all allowed to say "this is shit" about something we think is shit. that's the beauty of the internet.
p.s. notice i've said "something" not "someone"
*do you see, even
am i allowed to like you now?
the internet can't be embarassing
unless there are picture invloved
or real life stories connected etc.
I love the internet.

I'm not sure if I've just developed dyslexic
'cuz I don't think I've ever struggled to comprehend so much utter bullshit in my life.
OH MANS,
go see a doctor if you believe you have aspergers. stop embarassing yourself on a silly wee forum. or otherwise you'll have to make a lot of '___ is a cunt' threads.
this is possibly the greatest thing that's ever happened
is there going to be a public inquest into who is the most to blame in this??
This is CRAP.
Whatever happened to evil argument threads with ACTUAL plots? Like "HOW DARE YOU WISH DEATH UPON MY UNBORN CHILD?" etc.?
They've gradually deteriorated from stuff like Welshbulb being accused of being the fake account of marcofella, to things like Mirrilondon and Vikram arguing about paedophilia and now to this - YOU DON'T THINK I'VE GOT AUTISM BUT I DO SO YOU'RE A DICK.
Too many young uns, that's the problem. Get one of the old men involved and you'll have fireworks.
*groans*
not the old men
You watch what you say
The young ones know everything and they will mob you.
you're only 18?
this is all good stuff.
let's all leave each other alone now. as far as i'm concerned, this man has the right to reply to his abuser.
i don't know or care if he has aspergers, and neither should any of us.
for everyone's information it's very possible indeed for someone to have it and not realise, as it can be very mild. i didn't find out i was dyslexic till i was 17, that's most of my school life. a friend of mine found out he had aspergers at 18.
it happens.
now lets move on please, thank you.
i clicked on your profile to look at your hair again
and i saw your last fm which is equally good. niiice
ah my last.fm!
i rarely listen to stuff on my computer these days, so it isn't quite so representative. if i had all my records on the computer it'd have a million more plays for sixties garage rock.
but still, thank you very much :) you're awfully kind. i've been cultivating this barnet for a while.
i'd just like to say
i know yes_ very well IRL and he is a cunt. end of thread.
it's true
he thinks this is funny:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-b6uN7SUio
because it is
see guys, i'm not that bad really
sure?
maybe not but
at least i'll never be as sad as you
you say sad like
it's a bad thing
yes, that's correct
that's what i was saying yesterday!
:)
LIES
fuck off cuntface
:(
dis makes me sad today. i wonder why i bother
i'll tell you why
it's because you have no life, no friends and nothing better to do
wow
but yeah, why no msn?
is this helene?
or some HATEFUL DEMON?

do you know katy perry

GalacticStar3ruption is alright.
aww man
i go out for a couple of hours to watch some bands, drink some beer and eat some fried chicken and miss all the fun.
* hissy fits and bitching
btw Kyte only played one more song after you left because they were running late and had to stop. sucks for them :)
haha, seriously?
that's pretty sad for them, they sounded decent. ah well.
ah, you're both dicks.
josh for being a dick in the first place and you for causing a public argument about it.
no one wants to read them, no one will take you seriously and more importantly: the other guy wont reconsider his actions because you've just called him out in front of his peers.
any kind of autism is a pretty serious affair. i've flirted with the idea that i've had it before, but if i seriously thought i had it and i wasn't just using it as an excuse to justify to myself times when i've been difficult or dumb or compulsive or whatever, i'd go to a doctor.
so you go to the doctor, then either get help or stop causing arguments about shit that real people have to deal with every fucking day of their entire lives that you've got a hunch on from reading its wikipedia article.
I wasn't being a dick
I was being fairly sensible, and to be fair about a million other people said "shut up you probably don't have aspergers, you have proven you are an attention seeker and this is a case of it" in much more "definite" terms.
And for the record, i'm pretty sure ALL males have some form of autism, to a certain degree. It's a male genetic trait that's apparently inherent in every man to a certain extent, but i'm not sure whether this is FACT or still being argued over in "the scientific community".
Though I know how much you like to get at me
so I'll let you have this one, seen as you havn't been on a lot recently.
i think i focused on the other guy more
and tbh, i didn't even read the initial thread.
but cheers man. <3
this isn't true.
my girlfriend is working in the lab of one of the leading people researching genetic causes of autism. no-one yet knows which genes cause autism. the idea that its inherent (to a degree) in males is certainly not commonly thought.
that said, i'm still on yes_'s side in this just cos people who say they have autism/asperger's when they haven't been diagnosed are complete and utter tools.
also because
yes_ is just generally an amusing poster in a with rather than at way.
there is lots about autism and maleness
some even think that autism is a form of extreme 'maleness'
.
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=autism+maleness&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a
there are lots of people who link
autism to mmr too.
didnt the doctor who said that have a vested interest in the single vacince
where as the possible links between maleness and autism are often discussed, not saying it has been proven but it a theory
So....
...How about them Nicks?
knicks?
incredible
my mum thinks i look good in chinos.
man i've got a pair of chinos been sitting about for years
i might put them on again to see if I can pull them off yet
the vampire weekend look is in this summer
get in with the chinos now
im no where near "yacht" enough
nor do i have a shoe solution for the correct combo.
sorry i mean YOU CUNT!
I just dug them out
turns out they're not chinos but khakis. Epic fail.
Still, might wear them for a change. They're too baggy though. Disaster.
must be honest,
only an occasional DiS user, but these kinda threads with so-and-so's a cunt blah-blah. Truly deter me from using the site.
man up?
no,
it's just ridiculously childish. Surely the idea of the social forum is for interesting, or entertaining discussion. This, frankly, is neither and does nothing to encourage new people to start interacting does it?
