That's the thing with autism, though.
I applied to be a moderator of a website once and was rejected because they felt that my posts were "too short and incomplete".
Yeah, well, I don't know how to fit into the neurotypical world, since I was never neurotypical or officially diagnosed with autism.
Sometimes, you just have to make peace with the fact that you can't change who you are and the world just needs to accept you the way you are. There's nothing you can do about the fact that you're wired differently to most people.

@HootyTheNightOwl I do several of those, namely cracking knuckles, repeating sounds, drumming fingers, humming (less common).
@KiwiDan So you were stimming all along, you just didn't know it because you didn't know what stimming behaviours were.

@HootyTheNightOwl seems to be the case, yeah
In my experience, this is often the case with high functioning ASD: there is clearly no intention to be blunt or rude, just naturally direct and honest.
However, many neurotypicals don't know how to recognise the signs of ASD; if they could, they'd make allowances for it.
