    I had a similar conversation with a date a few weeks ago. I told her that I am getting tested for autism in a few weeks.

    “You don’t seem autistic.”

    Then spent the next 15 minutes talking about Magic: The Gathering cards. She was very to forgiving and said, “Oh. I get it now.”

      I’d be so happy if a psych would spend 15 minutes talking to me about ISO8601 timestamps or IPv6.
