I read an article in the newspaper the other day about Susan Boyle being diagnosed with Aspergers syndrome. I read with interest the symptoms, one of which was this "Sufferers with Aspergers often struggle to understand conversations", that struck a chord with me, because, sometimes I struggle to understand people's conversations, especially if the topic of conversation is about the Hedron Collider, Sea Wolf air missiles and Trigonometry .
Worried that you too might have Auspergers? take this AQ test I scored 24!
16. I do find it hard to follow conversations about cricket, vets bills, or Twilight films. No so much an Aspergers sufferer...more a stroppy cow with no patience, a low boredom threshold when it comes to discussing new fridges and a pathological hatred of wolf print fleeces. Actually, I'm more likely to be a psychopath. I must tune in to Channel 4 next week. x
ReplyDeleteI have a hatred of baker boy hats, especially if worn by men, when I see someone wearing one I suck in my breath and wince.
DeleteI scored 12.... I think my appalling lack of interest in mathematics served me well in this test.

ReplyDeleteThat's good! above average anyway.
Delete21! I've always been "average". Never say no, never say yes, always living in perpetual "maybe"!
