We just want you to think that so we can sell you drugs.
I'm not on drugs, so there.
Apart from blood pressure meds.
I do abuse caffeine though.
We know. We see all.
Soon, you will need MOAR BP drugs.

Excellent.
I clicked on the first link and figured out what they were doing after the first few questions.
3) I like x.
...
8) I don't not like x.
Those are about as accurate as online IQ tests.

I appreciate the input!
One reason I'm curious, is that those with HFA or Asperger's tend to get into a passtime or hobby or sport (usually a sport which does not involve a team or competition), REALLY intensely, and they stick with it for a LONG time or forever, and often become the best at it. There are a lot of members here who have been lifting for all kinds of reasons, and some for decades & decades, and some maybe started last week. If lifting/bodybuilding becomes an autistic or Asperger's "special interest" or obsession, I think it's the best motivation and easiest road to success of any. I wish I could say that the success I've had in the past 20 years is due to pure dedication, or good luck, but honestly I think the biggest factor is the obsession. If I don't work out, I can't mentally function for the rest of the day. Routine is everything for those with any type of autism, and it can be a great help, or it can be a problem, depending on how you use it. Another thing which seems to be part of autism; at least for me and for most others with whom I've discussed it, is that we're usually not competitive at all. Couldn't care less if the next guy is built twice my size, or lifts 5x more. I'd rather go mow the lawn than stand up to get a trophy for anything, and I have no interest in fighting, and don't care if I walk away from a challenge I could easily win. I'm in this sport for my own approval only.
Of course there are always a lot of factors and forces behind why anyone does things, or gets into any activity...
