If you are mildly autistic, then why have you used "autistic" as an insult in the past?
And though you indeed demonstrate difficulties with basic forms of humor, I find it hard to imagine an autistic as a 'sex beast', as another famous deficit in autism is emotional reciprocity and appropriate behavior during sexual encounters.

No you are a barrels of laughs, I can't imagine you being much fun at a party really. The most basic requirement for having a sense of humour is having it. I wouldn't be lying if I say that I am a pretty goodlooking guy that isn't short of attention but I never get into trouble because I can always end it with sharing a beer or a laugh, after I got kicked down or vica versa, but usually before. it might be harder for Kads to do that.

Montmorency, when have I ever used "autistic" as an insult?
I do believe you have some sort of autism, yes. But I put no negative meaning in it. Everyone is different in their own way... Autistic people are often quite intelligent too... I said it because you might wanna check it up if you havent, as I wouldn't be surprised if your people skills are low...
I am what they call a "Highly Functional" autist, and I have to focus in social situations... I was also a rubbish lover (still has never gone down on a girl as I find it yucky) till I learnt... Some things just take longer for me to grasp about how humans work... But that doesn't mean I can't learn :)
When I ski instruct, as an example, I feel more like "Playing" ski instructor... It's an act I put up that I have learnt that people like and respond well to...
When I relax I still slip up in social situations though... Like today in the dog yard, when my dog didn't like a person, and we discussed it... And people gave different reasons as to why, and I just went "Maybe he just doesn't like you"... I could read from the others faces that this was against the social code there though...
I can be very blunt when I dont focus and take things in a to literal a sense...
Oh and yes, lying is hard for me... It just "complicates" things imho... It doesn't mean I CAN'T lie, it's just that I would try everything to avoid it.
But that's just quirky old me...![]()

My friends used to tell me I had Autism or Aspergers. But at other times I've been told I can be quite sociable, although I find it a bit draining to act that way.
Its perfectly possible for people with Autism/Aspergers-style traits to have lots of friends and partners, actually I wouldn't be surprised if Kad's high number of sexual encounters is something to do with the rather formulaic approach Autistic-minded people have towards things.
I imagine the Autistically-minded would have more trouble with long-term relationships than one-night stands, but even then they're hardly crippled.
At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
So we're tarring and feathering Kad now are we?
The charge being led by Greyblades, who is currently going through his self-righteous self-loathing phase and Husar who, frankly, I don't understand at all.
Sure, it could all be made up - Kad's entire persona could be completely fake, he may not even be Swedish, he could be a Norwegian! On the other hand, his story is perfectly plausible and I've heard similar things from friends in London, including one guy who way beaten repeatedly over head with fists during the mugging, that was a group of blacks if I recall.
These things do happen and it's a matter of international record that Sweden has a disproportionally high percentage of recent immigrants from unstable developing countries, meaning that depending on where Kad lives and travels it's entirely possible he'd be attacked twice in the space of six months. After the last time he said he was making a point of being prepared, so the fact he didn't come off worse this time is entirely plausible.
Or, to put it another way - there's nothing about the story that sounds "made up" even though there's no proof it's true.

That you don't understand me is intriguing, either you're saying that you do not get what I'm saying or that you don't get why I would do/say such things?
I pointed out that Kadagar was drunk when he posted the OP and that given how much the topic bothered him it may be perceived as strange that he posted on another topic before he came up with this thread. One could assume that after such an event, Kad would post the topic first and then check on other threads. However, there is no certainty in any of this.
And the autism thing is strange, not only because it sounds like a rather specific borderline case where all negatives can be explained away but a heightened trustworthiness is supposed to stay, but also because when you criticize or doubt it, you are likely to be accused of trouncing somebody with a serious condition etc. In other words, the "perfect excuse", even if it's true.
