Also calling someone autistic as if it were an insult, c'mon, really?

But anyway, I know "normal" people also have these traits, I admit these are a bit cliché and probably offensive if your on the spectrum and have been facing them for years, so yeah even if it wasn't meant as an insult, it probably would have been better had I chosen other words... apologies

Edit: I just wanted to point out the weird power imbalance and tension that arises from these 'your boss is your best friend, but not' kinda situations, shouldn't have used "autistic" for this...

Don't worry, it didn't come across as an insult by any means. Blackheifer's just grasping at straws to make people he disagrees with come off in a bad light.
