Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I dunno - that seemed like such an ambiguous question.

That first question means absolutely nothing to me. Well, I mean I had to read the scenario multiple times to work out why the question was relevant. And then it irritated me.

Took the rest of the quiz and I'm most likely neurotypical.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Typo Boy, that was the same scene I thought of! Brrr. Most disturbing.

I'm afraid to take that test...

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I found myself answering "sometimes" a lot. I think it skewed the test:
Your Aspie score: 84 of 200 Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 107 of 200 You are both Aspie and neurotypical

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

WTF does someone foolishly training someone on something they won't need in a week and that they're probably looking forward to never thinking of again have to do with altruism??

That's what I was thinking. I was afraid to take the test because if I didn't even know that...! Glad I'm not the only one with a WTF reaction.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I got a question about them staying back to train an attractive woman. I don't see the relevance either.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I was thinking about it more in terms of "going on and on about techy stuff and I don't care who my audience is" but yeah. Altruism? The hell?

Your Aspie score: 140 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 78 of 200
You are very likely an Aspie

You know, these things always say that... and I suspect my brother is an Aspie, but...

I honestly don't think I am. I think I probably just have a lot of weird tics and a warped self-image.

Now tagless for your comfort.

OOoo, I forgot to mention. While visiting sister for niece b-day party, she mentioned cool tax tip this year. Apparently there is a line on the regular form for writing off the federal excise tax on your phone bills. So before doing taxes or heading to your EA or CPA, gather all phone bills (cell and landline). It's something like 3% of each bill. Not a lot, but it helps.

Turbo Tax has an automated line for this. If you don't have all my old bills but I know I was charged this fee on my old landline, so I took the standard $60 deduction.

Honestly - I'm socially awkward, have confidence issues, and don't pick up on other people's cues a lot of the time. I'm not sure it's helpful for people grappling with Aspergers to have me and everyone like me lumped in with them. I don't know - it feels to me like people who go all "oh, I get down too" when depression comes up.
