Who here's special?

Yep.

I have Aspergers. I also am Bi Polar and I have ADD

Nice to meet you. I’m an aspergers suspect (actually I’m pretty much a self-diagnosed Aspie).

Also a mild hypochondriac as of late.

Nice to meet you too! :smiley:

Wow! It’s very curious. It seems like there is a large population of people with Aspergers on Pixar Planet. There isn’t anything wrong with that! It’s just something I’ve noticed. And it’s odd, because I’ve never met anyone with Aspergers in RL.

That is likely due to our need to obsess over things. Pixar is so lovable, and therefore, easy to obsess over. <3 Same with Disney.

I probably could list 25 different things im totally obsessed over. :smiley:

Dude, me too! Seriously.

Major: Pixar, Disney, The Incredibles, Toy Story 2, Princesses, Tangled, Beauty and the Beast, Gargoyles(the show, not the statues in real life)
Less major: Other Pixar movies, most Disney movies, pizza, seafood, textures, politics(I’m very obsessive on this, but I do try my hardest not to hurt anyone’s feelings.), the Earnhardts, the film industry, writing, drawing, DreamWorks, How to Train Your Dragon, Kung Fu Panda, Prince of Egypt, and jokes. <3

True.

Though I can’t say I’m obsessing over pixar.
I do like pixar. But it doesn’t dominate my conversations.

I use pixar as inspiration for my 3D stuff :smiley:

I hate it when some people think spelcial people can’t get good jobs because of what they have.

Gee! I wonder if I can list my current obsessions.

Okay here goes:

Portal, Portal 2, elephants dream, WALL•E, salsa, film scores, sound effects, Blender 3D, Aspergers (surprising!), SPACE, film industry especially in the animation field, music composition, science, animation, modeling, game design, sound design, and a whole load more. :smiley:

Oh! SCI-FI! I forgot sci-Fi!! Hehehe!!!

For me its: Pixar Movies, actually movies in general. Books, Sitcoms, Converse Shoes, Kurt cobain, Nirvana, Music, Technology, Religion, Politics, Food, Old stuff, Colors, Violet, Automobiles, Society, Culture, Generation x, Humans, Anatomy, Laws, Animals, Outer Space, Deep underwater, Titanic, Henry Rollins, Guitars, Basses, Insruments, Sports, much more… :smiley:

I don’t know why but I feel like I don’t have many obsessions 8D
I know the aspergers syndrome is the bigger.
Robots being the “background” prominent obsession (I noticed I didn’t list it up there)
And I think space is becoming a newer one.

I love space because so much of it is unknown.

Hehe!! I like space because it’s so vast and beautiful!!
Just so many stars and how they’re Thousands upon thousands of miles away.
As well as how nebula are miles and miles and miles wide.

It’s sooooo cool!!! :smiley:

It is sooo amazing. :slight_smile:

Yep!!! :smiley:

so were going for 25 then, huh? alright, here I go:

half life series, Wall-E, pixar, airsoft guns, guns in general, soda, computers, literature, graphics, photoshop, videos, zombies, PP, Fallout New Vegas, running, endorphins, cars, Nine Inch Nails, The Chemical Brothers, weapons, Trent Reznor, Pendulum, friends, love, success!

I think there’s a relation between the obsession with the fandom here and the Aspergers condition. The fact that people with Aspergers fixate on things, and that Pixar is one of the many things they could fixate on, is the reason for their abundance here. So I’m not surprised there’s many more people with this condition on this forum, than say, in an average bus, or classroom, or random neutral place. You’d probably encounter a similar phenomenon on deviantART, or a Star Wars fansite, or 4chan, etc. Not saying all people who have a fandom are Aspergers, and not all Aspergers-affected people have a fandom.

Like-minded mines like to congregate, birds of a feather flock together, fools seldom differ, ornithological specimens of identical plummage invariably conglomerate in close proximity. yada yada.

^Exactly. :smiley: And Pixar’s movies are so different, that there’s one for every kind of freak! No offense. 8D It’s pretty obvious. Anywhere that is dedicated to loving and adoring one specific thing, there will be some of “us” there. :smiley:
