House, House, House... Fandom: "LIEK, OMG. House totally has Asperger's Sydrome. And also ADHD and bipolar disorder and ASP and depression and MPD/DID and the gheys and also he totally cuts JUST LIEK ME." The entire cast: "Yes. House, you have Asperger's Syndrome. I read it on the internets." House: "...Buh? No I don't, you blithering idiots, I'm too busy curing this actual autistic child plz go 'way now." Fandom: *...asplodes* The TwoP forums, where most of the Great Aspie Wank got started in the first place, start off with definite proof that the writers got it wrong. I mean, what does David Shore know about his own characters, or about medical shit for that matter? Not nearly as much as Kamikaze Chris, of course: "I've read alot posts about it on here and it seems the people who posting are are very very very very very very niave about the whole subject. I studied asperger's for almost 2/3 of my life, and disected every aspect practically atom by atom. So not to sound rude but i know what im talking about. (...) Also people have said that he doenst have it because he reads people well and is rude on purpose. And he is a great manipulator. Alot of mild cases of asperger's people can do this, and I myself am great at manipulating, lieing, and being rude on purpose." Forum regular Lizzim talks some sense into our Kamikaze hero: "First, whether or not we as viewers question Wilson's medical skills (and, for that matter, his ability to read and understand House), in the Houseverse, he is both a medical wunderkind and the House whisperer. And he told us clearly that House does not have Asperger's. Wilson would know. Second, House spoke so eloquently about why he envied Adam. I don't think someone who had Asperger's would have a clear enough understanding of what it's like to not have it as to be able to articulate that clearly what about it might be enviable. " But Chris' hunger for the crazy will not be stilled: "Just listing other possibilities here, he could have more than one thing like AS and ODD, or PDD-NOS, Narcissist, or just a weirdo (but an awsome weirdo)lol. And if he does have AS,it's super mild, like borderline, just a touch of it i would say." Two pages of wank so far, with an overwhelming sense of tl:dr. Also one post by yours truly from way before the post-ep wank started. And meanwhile Today's questions -- when did House turn into Gussie Fink-Nottle? Why the hell can't a writer decide what's up with his own characters anymore? And will the House fandom ever stop wanking? Disclaimer: I've been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, which makes me very, very hip. I am, however, also blessed with a sense of humor and the ability to lol. Hurrah.
