I noticed that Irlinit was verbally attacking me last night, quite uncomfortable. He said I lacked maturity.
I do have a disability and I have already specified that, I'm not going to clarify my situation/circumstance or go in depth. I think I've done fairly well considering my disability.

My brother is Autistic, yet at 17 years old he still shows a level of maturity, respect and understanding that you have yet to show. I'm sure it has an effect on you, but considering where you are, I can safely assume it's not severe at all.

In what sense?
I don't think you (as a stranger) can comment on my traits/approach without knowing me personally.

In the sense that he will respect an opinion, and is able to do it without being insulting, condescending or demeaning.
And yes, I can judge you as you post often enough for anybody to be able to paint a picture of your personality. The issue isn't your Autism, it's the way your parents have raised you. It's so unbelievably obvious that you're completely spoiled and sheltered, and have absolutely no respect or understanding of hard work and earning money.
I'm not going into every detail of why you are the way you are, but blaming Asbergers is the easy way out as far as I'm concerned.
And please don't think I dislike you, because I don't. I don't think you're a bad person at all, it's just that our personalities will clash, as I'm sure is the case with others.
i know some people without asperger's but still more bratty than him though. (so called instagram "celebrities" are the example). another case is backbiting to her parents in social media
eople with high-functioning autism/aspergers (including owen) are actually more mature than normal people in at least one aspect.
as for myself, no diagnoses from doctors yet, but i share a few common traits with aspergers people.

Not really, the mental age of a typical Aspergers student/individual is around 2 years below their cohort.
Owen you obviously have very mild aspergers as you are able to live a normal life & you have made it to University. My nephew is severely autistic, he's 14 & can only speak a few words. He needs constant supervision & has violent outbursts, which are getting worse the older he gets. He will likely need to go into a residential care home when he is older. I don't think you can blame your bratty behaviour on aspergers, it is down to your upbringing & the way you have always been handed everything on a plate...
Being socially awkward doesn't really come into an internet forum, so please stop using your condidition as an excuse for your behaviour
I think you guys are being unduly harsh tbh. We have no way of knowing how aspergers affects him in daily life. Certainly, a lot of people with aspergers/autism will say or do things that appear rude to others but not to them.
Owen is clearly very spoiled but I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
