  • My son has the same asbergers as mr numan .

    just watching him is like watching my son,

    his facial & body movements.

    my son also does daft things like selling things hes bought

    & when asked why he just says " im bored with it "

    but u only bought it yesterday "so" he'll reply .

  • I am a bit like this too when people ask me questions, or when I try to maintain some conversation. But me, I'm socially inept.

  • As a fellow Asperger-ite, all I can really say about Mr N here is that I've never seen him signficantly any chattier! Matchbox's 'Over the Rainbow' would've been based on Rockers' God Supreme Gene Vincent's 1959 version.

  • @LordArsehat why do u keep watching gary numan !!!! get a life

  • @LordArsehat.If you read up about Asperger's syndrome and read Gary's history you will see that he has this syndrome for sure.His facial features, words and body language actually show the syndrome!.He was under behavioural psychologists when young at school.The interesting thing though,is that the syndrome could well be responsible for how he perceives the world around him,so its indirectly responsible for his music as they are also understood to have a much higher IQ than average people.

  • @LordArsehat You act like you personally know the man. According to an article in the Independent, he was diagnosed in 2001. Either way, you don't have to be diagnosed by an expert to have AS.

  • Spot on, LordA!

  • Yes I remembered reading that he claimed he had Asperges Syndrome. I don't think he was diagnosed as having one. Although in this interview, his expression does look like he's having some type of autism, but unless its confirmed by a psychiatrist, its difficult to say !!!
