tiny said:But how is anyone supposed to guess that the OP is "on the spectrum"?! BabieAshie didn't mention it at all. Can Spectrumites read each others' minds or something?
No, sweetie, I was talking about Slomo. If I remember correctly, Slomo has mentioned it in a few threads. Sorry I wasn't clear. To answer your question, no. NTs are the good mind readers. That's what it takes to lie well, know you're being lied to, and even tell, and take, jokes. Interestingly, Neurotypicals do seem to suck at reading our minds. They're better at reading each other's. I will say, that if we're gonna stand a chance of mind reading well enough to joke, use sarcasm, empathize, or even practice lying, we generally do better with each other. Telling someone is a Spectrumite is more like seeing a family resemblance, for me, at least. It can show up in how we write, because writing is communicating. Try not to take what I said as a personal attack. That was the polar opposite of my intention. I really did find it funny.
