PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

It has just started snowing here in Central Bucks!

 

5 1/2

 

Literally as soon as I posted this, my boss sent me on an errand, and I put more than 12 miles on my truck, round trip!

 

While some of his habits are AS-induced, I think preferring to play with his LEGOs is more of a 5-year old thing than an AS thing.

When I was his age, my next door neigbors had a 3-year old girl named Mandy, and we played together all the time. She never forced me to play with dolls, either.

She played with toys like Hot Wheels, GI Joe, and Stretch Armstrong right alongside me!

I was not formally diagnosed with AS until age 9, but I was initially diagnosed with PDD-NOS when I was still in diapers...

When I was 2-3 years old, the moms in my neighborhood started up a play group for their infant children, and this is how I developed a lot of my early social skills.

And the Twatwaffle of the Year Award goes to...

A dumbass 14-year old freshman who wanted to get out of an English test!

A bartender I know (who bartends at two different bars, which happen to be the bar where I work and the only other bar in town I frequent) is, by day, a gym teacher a Lehigh Valley area high school.

Apparently this dumbass 14-year old typed up a BOMB THREAT on his computer, detailing times for bomb explosions and sniper attacks at the school. He then turned it into the front office, claiming he'd found it on the school bus. Calls were made, and the whole school understandably ended up getting evacuated. The SWAT team and the bomb squad showed up, and police blocked off roads leading to the school. All of the faculty, staff, and students were forced to hang out at a nearby university, which was kind enough to give them open access to the cafeteria (FREE FOOD!).

The dumbass then airdropped a picture of the bomb threat, which ended up on pretty much everyone's smartphone. The police questioned everyone who'd been on the little douche's bus, include the douche himself. Everyone suspected this kid from the beginning, and being questioned by a bunch of police officers inevitably made the kid crack under pressure. He confessed...

What ever happened to skipping class?!?!

 

Some folks want their 15mins of fame.

 

And/or 15 years of prison time...

 

The band that was supposed to play at my bar tonight cancelled because of the snow, and I got sent home early.

I decided to grab some wings and a couple non-alcs at the Other Side. This is what my truck looked like at 5:17pm, before I went to the other bar...



This is what it looked like just an hour and twenty minutes later!

 

Dashcam still photos from the drive home tonight...

The parking lot at work...

See those two girls circled in red?

I was driving down Main Street on my way out of town. They were on the left side of the street, and they were looking directly up the hill at me. There was also a car behind me. They looked right at me (they were standing approximately where I drew that red arrow), and I was thinking "You had better not..."

Sure enough, they did!

Fortunately, I anticipated the two pedestrians to be a bit lacking in the common sense department, and had slowed way down in anticipation. I beeped at them anyway because I was so pissed...

You don't run across a two-lane road in weather like this when there's a 3,000-pound pickup truck coming down the hill!

I could also see their faces reasonably well. They thought it was funny...

I was paying attention and anticipated their stupidity, but even simply paying attention isn't foolproof in weather like this...

 

On 611 now...

One major turnoff for me when it comes to women is women who just are not healthy...

I'm not talking about women who are born with a certain birth defect (like cerebral palsy; I went to high school with a super-hot bisexual girl who has cerebral palsy; I also went to preschool with her; We reconnected in high school, some 13 years later). In high school, I also had a crush on a girl named Laura who was in a wheelchair due to be being born with spina bifida. She was pretty, she was smart, and she was highly independent (pretty much everything I would want in a woman). Laura ended up going to college and has a good job as some sort of occupational therapist. I'm also pretty sure Laura has a driver's license and drives specially adapted van with hand controls (wonder if there are any handicapped Tacoma owners out there who've had their trucks adapted?).

I'm not even talking about women who have anorexia or bulimia...

I'm talking about women like my one friend (who I've told some of you about) who are obsessive hypochondriacs (my friend is at least honest and self-confessed about this, and makes no attempts to hide it). My dream woman doesn't take unnecessary risks, but at the same time is willing to take chances. A perfect example of this would be my boss (My boss is a very pretty Asian-American woman who is just 4 months older than me). She is strong-willed and independent, but also very personable, kindhearted, and down-to-earth. She is very street-smart as well (I don't live naive girls) and doesn't let be take advantage of her in any way. My boss is a friend and nothing more, but she also happens to have a lot of the qualities I look for in a woman.

 

My one friend is very needy and has tendency to get very emotionally attached to anybody who will listen to her (in this case me). She is a self-confessed hypochondriac and lets headaches and cramps pretty much ruin her day. I have hopped in my truck and gone work with a throbbing hangover on a couple of occasions, so maybe that's why I can't sympathize with that...?

 

I searched the almighty Google and answered my own question!

I think one I am open-minded when it comes to alternative lifestyles not only because my parents raised me to be accepting of everyone and everything, but because quite a few of my friends are into those alternative lifestyles.

One of the most amazing people I know is an openly gay man (and he's not my only LGBT friend either).

One of my friends from middle school (straight, and a former Marine) is into some extraordinarily kinky shit that makes Fifty Shades look like just another romance novel. In the interest of keeping TW at least somewhat family-friendly, I will not be sharing it publicly (and I'm not sure anybody would really want to know, either). A few of my friends are into BDSM at varying degrees, actually...

Basically, as long you're not a sexual predator (especially a child molester) or a terrorist, I don't have a problem with you! Whatever consenting adults do behind closed doors is their business!
