seems like lots of autists score pretty high.)

I got a 6, which is on the low end of being "possibly a borderline asshole."

I decided that I would err on the side of whatever seemed worse.

I don't really think I'm a borderline asshole, but I sometimes unleash withering scorn one people and things that I determine to be "stupid."

A lot of people think I'm really nice, BTW...

Don't judge me.

Sigh.

I could use a drink.

The line between "asshole" and "direct", or between "nice" and "sneaky", wavers depending on who is judging. I personally prefer assholes to "nice" people, because I like people who tell it as they see it, instead of sugar coating things all the time. Sure, there's a fine line to be played between social grace and getting the job done.... I'm from the east where more directness is tolerated. So I'll be the last person to judge you. And I'm interested in your withering scorn. Don't be shy, not around here, anyway.
