My brain can't comprehend sh!t like that and I didn't get it right. Ask me in a week and I'll get it wrong again.

>Aspergers

You don't come across as having Aspergers to me. I know that most of our communication is via ascii, and that there's a bit of a cultural divide so I could be missing it. You seem to have too much personality though.

I'll take that as a compliment. Thank you

Me neither. All of us are somewhere on the spectrum, though, and a "normal" male is more towards autism/asperger's than a "normal" female. So assuming your other half is female, standard male behavior might strike her as Asperger's

I swear you can mention any subject you can think of and there will have been a radio 4 programme about it. And I probably listened to it.

True... but in the strange space between pride and shame, we often exaggerate our oddities. On the other hand, the friend sitting next to me told me about a month ago "You're kind of a weird guy. And I mean that in the best way."

I don't think I'm a weird guy, but then, see my comment above about the Dunning-Kruger effect

>> mean that in the best way

I think of it as "positively abnormal".

As opposed to negatively ...

Normal people are sometimes pretty boring.
