I have Asperger's Syndrome as well. I know I've mentioned it before. And I have to say that it is not a good thing to have at all.
One symptom of it is that you tend to get fixated and obsessed on one topic, and you will try to learn every little piece of information, until you get to the point where you have learned absolutely everything, which sometimes, is impossible. For example, TPIR is obviously one of the most popular game shows on television. And a lot of people like to watch it if they're home from work or school. But then they don't wish to spend every second of their afternoon analyzing every tiny little detailed aspect of it. So I have to say that I really am not surprised that a large number of people on this forum have Asperger's.
Also, I am going to say that another big obsession that I have is Sesame Street. But it's for different reasons than the reason why it's there. I always thought the humor and the music on Sesame Street, especially the early episodes, was just fantastic. And I even remember a few years ago when Guy Smiley made TV Guide's Top 20 list of Game Show hosts.
However, many people, believe that Sesame Street is strictly a program for little kids, and should not be watched by anyone past the target age. There are some people out there who are very unaccepting of things that aren't appropriate for age. I can think of another example. I live in the Boston area, and there is this program called Springboard. It is for people with high-functioning Asperger's Syndrome and learning disabilities, so that they can get together with peers and do activities. There are a few annual events each year, and one of them is this fall picnic at this park in Boston. They have a shelter, barbecue, a softball field for the annual softball game, and near the picnic area is a playground with swings. And even at the age of 23, I still love swinging on swings, and so I went. But then Cheryl, the director of the program, came and "kicked me off the swings," and she explained that it's not appropriate for my age, it doesn't match what other people are doing, I'm not living up to my peers, etc. I was very hurt by her. This was a few years ago, but I still tend to dwell on it sometimes today. Do you people agree that it isn't okay for adults to do/like things that are meant for kids?
