No rational person of normal intelligence could seriously claim I have any of these conditions. There are great examples of autism in film, going back to probably the first description of it with the little girl who can't respond to anything in the movie Change of Habit with Mary Tyler Moore and Elvis Presley back in the 1970s all the way through Rain Man with Dustin Hoffman. These are clear examples of autism, people with no sense of humor - not just a bad one or one you disagree with - but none at all, and very little ability to relate to the rest of the world.


Hmm yeah clearly, the laugh at :33 is probably just a lot of people spontaneously clearing their throats at the same time (Occam's razor (Wittgenstein))

Further more, any of you who noted my screaming outburst on The Don Rogers Show would know that a person with autism lacks the capacity to have that kind of response to others. They don't make remarks directed toward others, they tend to be inward.


Right and also you've got empathy and widely ranging interests, case closed right? It's not like there are any subtle distinctions amongst different varieties of autism. It's mainly called a spectrum, after all, because it's NOT a spectrum--the point (for anyone not aware) is to embed sarcastic humor into the very name of the thing, so as to underscore how autists, unlike the normal people who name them and classify them and expertly point them out in movies, ABSOLUTELY DO NOT EVER understand humor. Now let's call in Wikipedia to really bring down the hammer once and for all

Wikipedia wrote:


Further differences in features between people with high-functioning autism and those with Asperger syndrome include the following:[2][5][6][7]
[...]
Curiosity and interest for many different things, in contrast to people with Asperger syndrome
People with Asperger syndrome or HFA can be able to empathize with others
[...]


Oh... well... probably those particular Wikipedia editors just hadn't seen Rain Man all the way through, maybe they thought Tom Cruise was supposed to be the autistic one and made up this other "HFA" thing as a result. Sorry Commander, you'll have to go edit that page now. :(
