Nope he wasn't a fellow Aspie. We are actually smart enough to know better than to irritate those with interests similar to ours.

Point taken. And at this point, it seems clear that PoI isn't some socially awkward Aspie; he actually seems to enjoy arguing on the 'Net, both to feed his sense of superiority and to piss people off for amusement.

People with Asperger's actually use the term "aspie"? I always thought that was considered derogatory.

How would YOU know? I've never even heard of either Aspergers or Aspies until this forum mentioned it.......

I figured it was akin to using "downie" for people with Down syndrome.

I don't know I only heard of the term after my diagnosis. I guess it's about how you use the term and under what context it's used.

Heck I know of a forum where they banned the use to the word Gyped as it was insulting to a couple members of Gypsy ethnic background.

"Gypsy" is not quite a slur, but it is incorrect to use. The proper word is "Roma". It's a bit like calling Native Americans "Indians".
