Yeah. I have to walk my dogs, but if I can spend the rest of the time indoors reading, I'm happy about it.
There are many neurotypes and I doubt they are close to cataloguing all, since they mostly go after the ones they can pathologize. I guess you could be what (vlogger) Amethyst Schaber calls "neuroweird"?
. But it worked so who am I to judge .. And I only would work that focused if I am really pasionate about something. But the closest to that was actually a single player game. Think it lasted for 3 months. 'freelancer' for the one that wants to know. All other actions are basically need based. Small fridge, would not survive the apocolypse . Now it is dangerous to generalize, so I am not. But it made my thimk of the hypothesis, what if you are not weird, we are. Any deviation from that path is basically need based. And if you generalize this, that would perfectly fit survival behavior of anything living. The weirdness is your success at reducing some of your needs to practically nothing. No need, no need to persue it. Nor are you not thinking long term. Your pay off basically still at the end of the month . The only real thing i wonder is if you consumed 100.000 dallor in that week. Other than that, yes it is weird, but gifted at the same time. I am almost jealous . Almost, for jealousy is a negative emotion. . But your question, reflected on my self. I think it is rare, for I have not yet achieved that level af mastery. . That is unless you are an indian guru who is almost by default accussed of cheating . ps if accuse you of cheating, one look outside the window probably made you realize the world had not ended yet. . But, just read and ignore for now, maybe your aspie ability was resting. . Fot I sleep too at night . I think a tri-tree-queen, anyways d&d species I suspect based on a grasshopperwould call that weird . (they apperantly don't have to sleep).Weird is just wired spelled wrong. If you have enough coffee and Wifi, you're a wired NT
I don't know about mad, but I sure am grumpy!
. But if I where you i would store a large stockpile of can food, or a variant. Then you can even close the window and you don't care anymore if the world is gone. . For those that disagree, i admire him, and you probably don't .. Attached to a warehouse . But, with internet access. . However, and this might point out bothva danger for you and me. I guesd I have to go out when I have a desire to mate ... Gosh imagine the astronaut power! Yeah, I am on a slow flight to mars, but don't worry i catch up on my reading .. When I got desperate I even started playing minefield. . Got irritated that that the software didnt allow me to easy store my probability calculations . And without proper storage, I found the process to risky to be fun. Did get me out of a couple of stuck situations though. Am I weird? | AspiesCentral.com By the way, I don't think you're weird. Except for those bunny ears you are currently wearing. 
"Weird" is subjective. My opinion is you do not sound weird. But that would be normal for me. I have been told many times I am weird. So many that I now shrug it off or take it as a compliment. If you feel like you're weird, don't worry, there's nothing wrong with being weird. .. Within reason, but the bad weird ones turn out to be scary criminally insane. And I'd say you're not one of them. So it's all good [emoji1]
Hey GC, you had an intense & focused week working on that paper which is also (I think) not one of your favorite subject matters so maybe you are worn down & need to relax & de-stress a bit. I also spotted this old discussion appearing under Similar Threads beneath this discussion! It's entitled "Am I weird?" by Grumpy Cat
Since then I've tested negative (boo) and know that I need way more small talk than an Aspie could ever want. But that's why I have both NT and Aspie friends. My yin and my yang!
Genuine question: Did i miss something? I'm not good at picking up subtleness , or if it was obvious, my apologies, I'm having a bad day, but did the person you quote say we're weird? Also, sorry if I'm just being thick. [emoji1]
