Regarding "Rory" who hovers over the dinner table without sitting down or eating anything....I would have spoke up and said something too.  If he wants to throw a temper snit, I'd show him the door.  My house, my rules!  If his daddy wants to be a silent wimp and refuse to say anything about anything after all this time of observing rude behaviors from his son, let daddy live with the consequences.  There's this concept that people don't seem to understand....BOUNDARIES!  No one is ENTITLED to show up UNANNOUNCED, in the MIDDLE OF DINNER, then HOVER over you while you are in the MIDDLE of EATING and the Interloper CONSISTENTLY REFUSES TO SIT DOWN AND/OR EAT!!!!  That would ANNOY the HELL OUT OF  ME AFTER THE THIRD TIME!!!!

 :P

One of the letters specifically discusses N's.  It appears that NO ONE really understands what us survivors deal with on a DAILY basis given the responses from both the advice columnists and the comments below the line.  Sheesh!!!!   :P

Maybe I'm old school.....certain things annoy the HELL out of me such as the following:

(1) Being talked down to, as if I'm a child, regarding HOW I'm spending my money in a cafe' by the cafe' manager.  (NICE way of alienating your customers and losing their business when your business is DEPENDENT on RETURNING customers!  Plus, I AM NOT A CHILD!)

(2) Having someone focus ENTIRELY on texting while I'm trying to hold a conversation.  (NOT easy for any Aspie to try to hold or maintain a conversation while the other individual has their eyes glued to their iPhone and not even grunt any acknowledgement of the attempted conversation.)

(3) Having that same someone turn their back and walk away in the middle of introductions being made and turn their attention back to the iPhone.  (There is being Aspie and, then again, there is BEING RUDE!   :P)

I finally said to myself, "SCREW THIS!" and came back home!

Speaking up and doing the right thing is so hard when one has been trained to be stomped down at all costs!

Trying hard to stay calm today even though I have the overwhelming urge to bitch-slap tea-bagger idiots!  The small business I was trying to build has been, effectively, PUT OUT OF BUSINESS because these clowns refuse to play nice!  !@#$%!@$!!!!!!!!!!!
