Shows what you know, youngsters are all about the TikTok and Discord now :p

Some within the community aren't keen on the high-functioning label since it frames us in regard to how easy/difficult neurotypicals find us to deal with. I only recently heard that it was falling out of favor myself.
They do tech on tiktok?

High-Functioning Autism, I didn't mean to cause any malicious intent to anyone. I was just introducing myself.

Hey its not like we made you select all the pictures with bicycles 4 times before joining/posting!

:p

Thing is the vast majority of new posters here are spammers and/or "bots" ... it's not personal.

;)

How did you find this forum, anyway? I didn't know that most 18-year-olds had a thing for European UPS systems, which seems to be Anandtech's new favorite thing to review!

You've been on here for 16 years and you're prefrontal cortex still hasn't formed yet.

Hay! I are smart! The doc who scrambled my brains told me so. Sayd I had the biggest , really, many people say it, biggest pre-frontal cortex he had...hey...shiny! Dood...I've also been on your mom for 16 years...

Good on you.

I'd rather have a new user giving it right back over seeing yet another CBD gummy thread any day of the week. :p

Hell yes...at this point, the only real indication that this is some kind of bot is the user name. Not too often do real users sign up with what appears to be a real name.

They do all kinds of stuff on TikTok. I try to stay away from it, so I don't specifically know if they do tech (I only see what filters out to other media platforms)

As I've grown older I've realized about 50% of people never get any smarter after about age 11 or 12. That includes billions of people with a 30 second attention span who crave being constantly distracted by synchronized dancing, childish filters and 30 second snipets of things more talented people created, dumbed down and disected for the nincompoops.

Which Lifer here didn’t begin as a sex-starved teenager trolling forums for tech deals before finding ATOT???

Certainly not I.

Welcome to the forums kid. Remember that this doesn’t have to consume you. There are other worlds than this. But you might still be here 20+ years later and that’s ok too.

I think boomer scared him, he already deleted his account.
