  • ...i find this kinda offending, i have Aspergers and act nothing like the people in this series are. this series is just going to make fun of people who are diagnosed with Aspergers and make us/them look dumber/stranger than they probably actually are.
  • At least this isn't a pity campaign. It's good to see people with Asperger's in a comedic light sometimes.
  • This is a parody, not a proposed show. Parodies take things to extremes; that's what makes them parodies. I'm not an Aspie, but I have someone in life my whom I adore who is a very high-functioning Aspie, socially. Ironically, the fact that he's less obviously an Aspie (as opposed to the people in the parody) makes it harder for him, because instead of coming across as having an obvious and forgivable social deficit, he sometimes just comes across as a selfish asshole, which he absolutely isn't. I get that it must be frustrating to have Asperger's, because as an "NT," I can tell you that dealing with someone with Asperger's can also be really, really frustrating (How can you NOT GET that what you just said is offensive?!?!?") So when I joke withmy friend about his "Spockness," it's not to be mean, it's to say, "you can be a real trial but I care about you anyway." Seeing this allows him to laugh about it too. Being able to laugh at it makes it a more human trait than some taboo where everyone has to pretend that there's nothing amiss. The scene where they're all talking about their pet subject? Holy cow; I could say I'd just had my arm dismembered and get almost no response, but if I mention baseball, we're off. So yeah, I love that scene. I take meds for an anxiety disorder, and I will be the fiirst to laugh at my friend's teasing about it.
