I turn left instead of right. Press the unlike button on Pandora when I meant the like button *grrr*. Self incriminate myself when I mean to do the opposite. Choose a task I did not intend on completing first, but last. Read a magazine or catalog from back to front. Or appear effusive and more helpful to those I don't know than know. Etc. I don't mean Ill by any of this.

No, not all Orthodox Jews look the same. In fact there are distinguishing features between them, but for someone who is already occasionally bad with recognition and not able to recognize people's faces from behind as you're walking up to them, especially when they're all practically wearing the same uniform... It makes it frustratingly difficult, but also more understanding about people who initially think that we as autistics all seem the same. xD<br /><br />My brother's ears must be ringing. lolMiguel Palaciohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02311154354365423829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5794893825407092443.post-62183233804800866542015-01-18T14:44:05.783-04:002015-01-18T14:44:05.783-04:00Stop being Autistic, will ya?! lol
I must acquire...Stop being Autistic, will ya?! lol<br /><br />I must acquire this look of becoming one with the shelf of productos that I'm analysing. To the point that inst really semana like i beling there, because so often, people walk up to me and ask me: "do you work here?" Regardless of where I'm in sweats or a suit and tie. <br /><br />Other times the people who work in the store must instinctively detect something "different" about me and them its what I call "fear of the unknown" kicks in and, as you eloquently depicted, they take it upon themselves to focus all their attention on me to facilitate my purchase and get me the hell out of there as soon as possible before something "abnormal" happens or maybe I scare some if the other customers away, it, who knows, maybe I might, *egad!*, help one of such customers when they approach asking me if I work there. xDMiguel Palaciohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02311154354365423829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5794893825407092443.post-46646892225425302582009-01-18T21:09:00.000-04:002009-01-18T21:09:00.000-04:00I remember now.

Things like that.<BR/><BR/>Sounds like you have reverse brain syndrome, too. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5794893825407092443.post-62294783976220826032009-01-18T11:08:00.000-04:002009-01-18T11:08:00.000-04:00Nice post.

I don't have reverse prosopagnosia, but I do sometimes do something else that I call "reverse" but even though I talk about it quite often, right now I can't remember what it is.
