Comment Am I normal? (Score 1) 332
I have to admit I enjoy not being socially normal. It gives me a sense of being special ;-). But the issue here is that the "normal" are looking at us and saying that alot of us have this kind of mental problem...or that kind of mental problem. Why? The answer is simple. We are different. I look at society today and gasp at its barbaric and childish nature. The nature of science is that of labeling. Everything has to be identified and labeled and here is an instance where the "normal" have taken a look at us, who are now looked upon to keep bringing better technology to society, and decided that because we are different that there must be something wrong with us. I personally don't thing that I am better then anyone else, but I do believe that there are certain people who will look at me and suggest that because I am different that I must have some kind of mental problem (do you really have to have a mental problem when you excel at complicated and technologically advanced things?). Just my 2 cents.
