1. That's really cute about your nephew. :) I think I've only met one autistic person in my life. He was, iirc, very high-functioning, but he was perceived by a lot of kids around him as weird and anti-social, which is basically the worst thing you can be in junior high, so he was kind of shunned. Some people have mentioned that they think I might have Asperger's, but I don't think I exhibit enough of the traits associated with it to be anywhere on the spectrum.

3. Like when you breathe underwater and it comes out your nose? Bizarre, man.
