Yeah,
my department want to advertise the fact that they have a woman working for them. I am torn between being a role model and being a token. Also, it means I'll have competition for the unlimited autistic geeks.

how ridiculous is that?!
hmmm. i think you can accept the competition though. autistic internet gaming geeks = shit in bed.

i've only made the mistake of testing this theory once, but it is sooooo true. NO EXCEPTIONS.

oh yeah, and you're married, should that have been my first thought?!

Aye, but I'm married to a computer geek.
He's not autistic though. He can look at someone else's shoes when they're talking to him.

If he thinks shoes are talking to him, autism is the least of his worries.
