Much in the way one who participates in heavy drinking, but can operate in normal society is a functional alcoholic: one who participates in heavy function use, but can program normal programs is doing functional programming. Functions, especially the more street available nested anonymous ones, are highly addictive and may make you want to abandon other forms of control flow entirely. Allows one to write code that operates on other code easily. Nerd Shit.

A low end NT tend to operate at the lowest level possible in life, never able to hold down a job, and will revert to the scummy hustles. They usually will be a kleptomaniac often even towards friends and family. When they come across a mentally impaired person already hooked on dope, it's a jackpot 4 them They may pressure 1 to trade a new PS4 remote like a 5th of a gram of crack, acting like it's the deal of the century. They want u 2 think 1/4 gram of dope w a 5 min high is in ur better interest than a stack of budget games that can provide dozens of hrs of fun. More often than not, a high end autistic individual operates at a higher lvl in life with the creativity and knowledge base being stronger than low end commoners. With the strongly held moral codes of ASD folk, they are less likely to resort to unethical/ criminal means of survival. Whereas a high end NT is more likely than the other neuro-types to finish college and find employment in their field of study, or to find their niche sooner, as they have both a strong skill set or knowledge base that isn't counter balanced by social awkwardness. A low end commoner is also prone to constant lying, who r also less skilled of a liar than a high end NT. On the contrary a high end NT has less of a need to be a liar as they usually aren't left in a position where lying is needed. Thing's tend 2 fall in place for high performing neurotypicals and most were preppy in school as well as beyond graduation.
Oh there's that dope dealer trying to sell meth to that guy with an autistic lisp and mannerisms. I'd like to call that criminal a low functioning neurotypical.
