>>6879210>"Typical adults" don't incorrectly use the word "autism" like people on this board do.You're right, a better word would be "weird," but I was simply using the vernacular of this place. I doubt most people here even know what autism really is.
>I also see collections posted by successful people doing way better than myselfAnd if a typical person who isn't interested in toys knows about it, they'll consider that person weird, regardless of how successful they are. None of that even touches on the fact that success has nothing to do with dysfunction. There's people that are an absolute mess who are successful financially, and sometimes even socially.
>you clearly have a shitty self image, and you are projecting it onto everything else.You know absolutely nothing about my self-image. The only thing I've stated is the truth, that collecting toys (and discussing toys on, as you said, a forum with a lot of dysfunction) is considered, while not "autistic," a very strange and childlike hobby. Trying to compare levels of "autism" on this board is like comparing heights at a dwarf convention. It doesn't matter who comes out on top, you're still going to be an "autistic" or a dwarf.
