Autism can range from non-verbal to high-functioning and everything in between. My nephew is nearly 17 and has a mind functioning on a third-grade level. I struggle heavily on a social level and often am overstimulated by lights, sounds, unfamiliar environments, etc.
Not all autistic folk have the same “level” of autism.
That’s okay, jokes in text form do not often hit the way they were intended.
I was typing it out thinking “Oh this is going to be so funny when others see my stupid joke about autism percentages teehee.” Perhaps not one of my best jokes.

Sounds like I’m at the same level as you. Also I appreciate a real answer to my joke lol.
Tbf, there’s a lotta folks who come in here from other instances without even looking at where they are, sometimes making thoughtless comments.
In case you were one of those, I thought it best to explain. 👍
…I also did not realize it was a joke until you said something, so make of that what you will.

I feel that sometimes. I can get along with 5-10 year old children pretty well as I find them relatable. I sometimes talk like I’m 5.
