Get the spectacular burnout mug.A neurodevelopmental condition characterized by impaired social skills and restricted interests or repetitive behavior. Symptoms usually begin in early childhood.
Although most people with autism spectrum disorder (people "on the spectrum") are functionally impaired, some thrive occupationally or academically, especially people with Asperger's syndrome, who have no delays in language development and/or IQ.
A common misconception is that people on the spectrum lack empathy, the affective part of empathy seems to be unimpaired compared to people without the condition. This means that people on the spectrum often have the capacity for compassion and morality.
Complications include bullying, unemployment (prevalence of about 90%), suicide and self-harm.
Treatment is limited and the efficacy of specific interventions has been disputed.
The heritability of the condition is about 90%. Specific environmental risk factors known to contribute to the condition include autoimmunity. Disproven environmental factors include vaccines.
Although the condition causes significant suffering for many, some have disputed the characterization as a disorder altogether, especially because the restricted interests commonly seen in the condition can include occupationally or socially useful subjects like math or physics. People on the spectrum often hyperfocus on their area of interest.
Several historical figures like Einstein are claimed to have been on the spectrum, these claims are unproven.

Get the autism spectrum disorder mug.The master of the Undermap and it's third level. He was once Derf's best friend but then stole the secret to winning The Game, therefore giving him great power but making him an obvious jackass so Derf kicked him out of the Emerald Arcade. The Great Spectator then created his own realm to rule where all people go if they are killed in a game after doing something such as ninja looting or screen looking and they have to pass through the 3 Red Rings of the Undermap and endure it's trials then get kicked out with another chance, but, if you are a supreme jackass in life, after you die ,depending on how bad of a jackass you were, you get sent to one of the Red Rings. You could even get sent to the secret 4th Ring (where you'll get pwned by the Great Spectator) if you're bad enough. Through this he now serves a purpose and, his jackass status revoked, him and Derf now hang out again and is actually a pretty cool inter-dimensional being.
