from wiki:
"Autism is a brain development disorder characterized by impaired social interaction and communication, and by restricted and repetitive behavior."
a far cry from being hit in the face with a baseball bat, id say that was fairly insulting to those whom have autism.
I have quite a few autistic traits, but i would never seek to be tested or diagnosed for autsim, because i do not see it as a disease or a handycap, the traits are just a part of my character and personality, and i am proud to be who i am, so to call them a disorder is quite wrong i feel

It's looking like our kid's got some of the Autistic spectrum, but we're getting very comfortable with the idea.
Besides, he kicks the arse of other kids at english and maths.
EAT THAT NON-AUTISTIC FUCKERS!
