    No, but I know a kid who plays a mean pinball with a feature-length about him.

    That's not a fair comparison. That kid was deaf, dumb and blind.

    Dude, deaf, dumb and blind are not the preferred nomenclature. Hearing impaired, on the spectrum and blind, please.

    Also, @SpreadOffense7, make sure to tell her she's smart if she already knows she's pretty.

    Or pretty if she knows she's smart.

    In this case, the decision is tough. /@freqposter

    My bad. Apologies if I offended, thoughts and prayers, etc, etc

    I don't think being "dumb" is necessarily on the spectrum, it just means the inability to speak.

    Fair enough.

    (Most of the "mute" kids I've encountered were severely autistic, so I went with it.)

    Also, per my handle, I'm obligated to paraphrase The Big Lebowski quotes with humorous intent.

    Being on the spectrum is not being dumb. We have an argumetitve poster here who can prove that.

    We're no longer allowed to say females are pretty.
