Today, my dad and grandpa came to a charity event that I helped set up for people who have autism. I appreciated their support, until I heard my dad say "Man, some of these 'tards are pretty hot." and my grandpa replying "Yeah. Probably like dead fish in bed, though." FML

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Dafuq? ... That is beyond insensitive. It's downright rude! Karma will take care of them accordingly.

I don't want to play the devil's advocate here, but in a way they might have been the only ones in the whole event to see them as persons, I mean considering someone attractive, or even making fun of them is like accepting this person as "average". While if you keep thinking that you have to act toward them in a different manner, and show some special consideration and everything, you're only singling them out a bit more.

I think they did not see the people with Autism as human beings or equal. Only for sex and only marginally. I do not in any way think they saw them as people.

#39: While hardly a sophisticated or politically correct attitude, "I'd tap that" does express a degree of acceptance. If you find someone weird and incomprehensible, the thought of having sex with them can be between off-putting and unthinkable. On the other hand - it's far too easy to fall into a dismissive mindset when helping others. Care doesn't imply respect.

I feel like cartman when he met a little person. Haaaaaaahaaaaaaa

I have had Asperger's Disorder since I was three years old and am high-functioning autistic. I hope your father and grandfather get served the highest level of karma by someone who's also autistic just to teach them that we're a lot smarter than we appear, and I hope you said something to them about their blatant disrespect. Otherwise, you're no better than them.

Aspies unite!

Thats highly innapropriate

Shame on your dad and grandfather ! I am the mother to a beautiful little boy with autism and I feel that anyone who puts down anybody with a disability isn't worthy of the air they breathe.

Wow, would you look at all the butthurt here.

that's one of the disgusting things I heard in recent times...how can anyone think like that...

Thats hilarious

You have problems.

And you have a gun. :-S

Dude, it's fake.

So please don't fake kill me. I just saw that you're a war reenactor. That's cool, what war/time is it?

Ok, just have to say this. You're kinda awesome! :D

We're all awesome here.

I'm Autistic, and you can tell your grandfather that we are actually just as wild in bed as anyone else
