He just HAS to be a troll

I've been told I'm mild Asperger's.
Autism diagnoses are up dramatically mostly because the spectrum has been expanded greatly.
Looking around your small rural town, you can pick them out.
If I were a child today I'd have my own label.
With respect, one thing I've learned after 10 years of therapy is that laymen should not diagnose. Ever. Recognize traits in people we deal with sure, but don't diagnose. It's been great advice.
Psychologists make terrible authors and we shouldn't give their books a lot of weight.
For one, it relieves me of looking for excuses and avoids PA tendencies. Avoids labeling others. Understanding how to listen to otherwise interesting people with abrasive quirks periodically.
It allows me to look in the mirror and avoid being an arsehole. That's really all we can do to be better humans. As laymen, just focus on not being an arsehole. Stepping over those who haven't learned this step isn't always easy.
Maybe maturity is avoiding baiters and just occasionally beating them back down where they belong.

No such thing as a normal human being, just degrees of sanity. Some crazier than others.

Since this is Chuck's own personal thread.
Which end of the some are crazier than others spectrum would you suggest that Chuck falls into?

Oh trust me, I've known enough women to attest to that, God bless 'em.

Chuck may or may not be a lot of things, likely not crazy. LoL

A reasonable guideline. I have known dangerous outliers off the graph. I do seem to have a type.......
It's been a ride.

So now you are an expert in autism , just like Lentil is an expert in astronomy?

Lol. That’s kinda funny. Do you know anything about autism? I live it everyday so that’s my experience and knowledge. Guess I might have been overreaching diagnosing Chuck but his conduct checks many boxes of an autism assessment but also psychopath one as well. We can be anonymous on these internet chat forums all we want but the more folks write the more their true personality comes out. Many psychopaths can put up a good front but a good assessor can trap them up.

Sounds like you know far more than I for which I'm glad. Hat's off to you.
Have you ever considered CC is just an asshole?

[AlbertaFarmer5]

Which one of us is supposed to be flattered and which is supposed to be insulted?

Not sure that you thought this one through, considering that you seem to like every one of Chuck's posts.
But you sure got defensive when I suggested you were sounding like Chuck a while back...

In my experience the use of LOL is a marker for narcissism. It's derisive and indicates an attitude of contemptuous eye-rolling moral superiority.

[blackpowder]

Thing is, for official "diagnoses". You may need to check 5 of 7 boxes in the DSM IV. Even though 1-4 may be pronounced they are just personality traits, not a " disorder". Hence the asshole clause.

Being a narcissistic asshole is a disorder 🤓
