Life's funny

Visible to anyone in the world

I thought I would say some of the funny things i had said or done to me or what i have done. As I have had some weird and wonderful things said when i mention i am on the spectrum. Also some people think that its hard being autistic, its even what i got taught in my health and social care course apprently be autistic can be very challenging. I haven't seen much difference from being normal. We just tilt are heads and walk- get it as we see things froma different angle. Sorry i know its a bad joke.

Anyway lets get on with beign funny. Apologies for anybad jokes. smile

I was training on the water and someone decided to have a conversation with me we got talking, although it took awhile to get talking, this person i mentined that was autistic more exacly i have Asperger's Syndrome and he response was " Oh, I'm sorry" I just smiled. You wounldn't belive how many people go to this response if you mention you have autism or Asperger's. I'veeven had it in an interview. Im still trying to figure out why they are sorry- I'm special and i like soft furry things instead of being sorry just put a cat or an animal i can touch in front of me.

Another thing someone has said is "nevermind, you will phase out of it" what i usaully say is no i can't go through walls. I can't see why people say silly things like this, if they say thins like that then i will usally say silly things back to them.

Right this is some from me now.

I was at a restruant with my parents, I had a drink it was a pepsi with ice and a lime, when i came to drink from it then lime touch me. I pulled my drink away from me. I looked at my parents and said "the lime touched me inapropiately" I paused then i said "I don't like that lime".

This is one that i always do but im picking the best one. Me and my mum were in town we got to a blind corner she turned the music down so she could hear any queit cars or bikes and just as she turned out of the corner all you heard from me was "Peek-a-Boo" my mum pulled the car over tried to stop laughing then carried on heading home.

Anybody who knows me i can mimic very well and guess what? Anyone reading this is going to have to use their imagination, poor you. The Action man moneysupermaket advert was on, so i grab my dog and made them act part of it out... then they slapped me so i carried to mimic it the only issue is I'm not plastic

I might be the odd acception but I try to be funny and happy because if i goof up, i look like me if i don't goof up (and im not with any strangers) i can do little dance.
