Asperger’s Syndrome

SNL OPENED OUR EYES ABOUT ELON MUSK

Elon Musk’s appearance on Saturday Night Live turned out to be quite a surprise. We weren’t familiar with his personality at all and found his South African accent and idiosyncrasies fascinating. He looked handsome- was well dressed, but appeared awkward and a bit uncomfortable before announcing that he had Asperger’s syndrome. THAT explained a lot. He made a distinct effort to communicate with the audience and was surprisingly unpretentious. Imagine a multibillionaire having fun dressing up in goofy costumes for skits on SNL! How could you not like him? Elon obviously tried to have a good time on the show and it made him a lot easier to like. Seeing him (above) with his girlfriend of two years, Grimes, really gets you wondering what they have in common. They partied fully masked until 6 AM at the SNL after-party.

DARYL HANNAH MAY BE SHY, BUT SHE’S NOT AUTISTIC

This week Daryl Hannah made the “shocking revelation” that she suffers from autism and had “debilitating shyness” as a child. Sorry, but we’re not buying it. Daryl is far too accomplished an actress. Daryl believes she has a form of autism called Asperger’s Syndrome but there’s more to this disorder than extreme shyness. People with Asperger’s are of normal intelligence but cannot react appropriately in social situations. They have great difficulty developing friendships or sharing pleasant activities with others. They simply don’t understand other people and cannot share feelings or humor. Daryl is a successful actress who has understood and played many types of characters. She has dated some of the hottest guys in Hollywood – not to mention John F Kennedy Jr. She seems to have no trouble socializing. (We’ve seen her at parties.) We have our doubts about her self diagnosis.
