Yeah the "I have a retort ready" part is weird. Not sure where this is gonna go.

Just pretend I listed the symptoms and make with your retort already. I don't particularly want to answer a question that's a trap, where you're hoping I fall into your clever trap, and if I don't, you ignore me and I've wasted my time.

Look, I have seen autistics. Most of them were disassociated children. Unaware of the activity around them. I find it difficult to believe that it is an acquired trait.
I have my own problems. I maintain awareness of the world about me.
There are conditions that may happen to the mentally unstable; Catatonia is the most serious. I have withdrawn. I have isolated. I am merely depressed and anti-social. Should my shrink label me as Asperger's or autistic? I am not autistic. I can function within even a small society as this.
I question the over-diagnosis. I question the misapplication.

Watch the show Alliegence. The protagonist has Aspergers.

They are repetitive and obsessive about topics sometimes shy Austin and Aspergers are very complicated.
