How do you all handle things like sarcasm or irony? Particularly on forums like Something Awful where text obfuscates a lot of context

Autistic person here.

I'm... pretty good at it, I think? I know I can manage one hell of a deadpan delivery, and a lot of folks IRL apparently think I'm funny.

As for a cure for autism if such a thing were possible I'd take it in a heartbeat but it wouldn't fix the years of trial and error social experiences.

Personally, I'd run far away from a cure, as I simply don't want to be NT. No offense, normal brain people - you can be nice, but sometimes it's like dealing with insane telepaths, and I fail to get the appeal of being normal. I don't really suffer from being autistic, its' folk's reaction to it that I suffer from.

Now, that suspected I-ADHD of mine? That can eat aaallll the poo poo.
