MayoClinic.com states that symptoms of Asperger’s also include (but are not limited to):

* Engaging in one-sided, long-winded conversations, without noticing if the listener is listening or trying to change the subject
* Having a hard time “reading” other people or understanding humor
* Speaking in a voice that is monotonous, rigid or unusually fast
* Appearing not to understand, empathize with, or be sensitive to others’ feelings

Cool but that sounds like every gamer I know…
