Do you never get tired of it?

Anyone here who never gets tired of watching the same thing over and over or doing the same things over and over?


I see some aspies can't watch a same movie over and over or else they get sick of it, also they get tired of repetitive tasks at work because they don't have that trait. But I am one of those aspies who never gets tired of it. I can go to work and do the same things over and over and I won't get tired of it. I can watch my favorite movie over and over and never get tired of it. I also listen to the same soundtrack over and over and never get tired of it. That's one of the things I love about my AS. While other people have to struggle and be bored what they do, I don't have that issue. I think it's due to preferring routines and rituals and I used to get upset when they change but I learned to deal with it.

Only if it's something I really like, like some songs, or some movies. There are plenty of songs I listen to in my song collection that I will probably never get tired of, like the theme song to Katts and Dog (aka Rin Tin Tin: K-9 Cop (in the US). My favorite theme is the one of the 4-5 season, it's longer and has something added to it. It;s an old and rare show, but I love it, and am obsessed with it. I love Rudy, (the dog, German Shepherd).

Years ago, I used to watch Back To The Future (1985) a lot, and knew pretty much everything about it, even the entire script! Same with Titanic (1997).

Unless I really like something, doing the same thing over and over I get tired of it.

Same here; only if it's something I really like. I hate routine. It's dull and I would consider my life a waste if I had to do the same thing over and over that I'm not that interested in. Remember? I'm disaster happy.
 
I'm not sure about myself. I stack shelves at work and I absolutely stand it. Though I can come home and do the same reptitive task on an online game for hours on end/until exhaustion. Maybe its down to the strain my work puts on my knees/joints that makes it a bit unbearable.
 
I get up every day and go on the computer...
But most things I get tired of or fed up of. Unless I'm forced too, then eventually I get used to it even though hating it(i.e school).
EMZ=]
 
Yeah, I think it depends a lot on how interested you are in said reptitive task. Kind of obvious I guess.

^^^^^^^^^ I do this too.


Sometimes I get tired of life in general. Nearly everyday is the same to me that I do get sick of it sometimes. I get so happy when I get to socialise that when it's over I start feeling down again.
 
I don't really get bored of it tbh.
Life I've had enough of, under dualist philosophy...
But meh.
I'm not a dualist. LOL.
But y333r...

I don't usually get tired of stuff. I can watch a movie loads of times and still enjoy it. :) I've been watching the same SpongeBob SquarePants episodes for 5 years now and never ever got tired of them.
 
Today I spent hours listening to 5 or 6 remixes of the same song... Piece of Me by Britney Spears.
 
I have a habit of wearing clothes that look the same every day,same color pants,shoes,and shirt.

I buy several sets of the same thing and will look that way for months.
 
I can't do that at all
I've seen my favorite movie less then 10 times from when I was 16 til now (5 years later)
I can't stand my job because its so routine based, it drives me crazy
 
Whenever I listen to a song, I usually listen to it like 20 times in a row, for a few weeks at a time. I watch the same reruns of shows every day and the same movies over and over again. I dunno, it just doesn't affect me.
 
Ah. I can listen to a new song I like on repeat for a few hours for a few days, but there's a limit when i start hating it, lol.
