Going by the little I know of Aspergers, there's a good chance you are indeed intellectually superior to most people on this forum,although perhaps not so much in terms of social skills and empathy.Remember, an absence is not a lack. Not having empathy is something I consider extremely useful, and as far as social 'skills' - well, not being able to do things you have no interest in isn't much of a drawback.

"Philosophy would do well to desist from issuing any further injunctions about the need to re-establish the meaningfulness of existence, the purposefulness of life, or mend the shattered concord between man and nature. It should strive to be more than a sop to the pathetic twinge of human self-esteem. Nihilism is not an existential quandary but a speculative opportunity." - Ray Brassier
