  • I love what he's saying... I'm socially adept, but I am very "unbalanced" intellectually. I have a 186 verbal IQ (guess what I do for a living - writer!) and a 76 spatial IQ... which is what used to be termed "retarded," but is not politely phrased as "developmentally-challenged." I tell friends learn how to turn on the faucet every morning, and they laugh at my joke... but it's not THAT far from the truth!

    Keeps me humble... we are all unique. But some of us are also WEIRD. :D

  • It's called "Look me in the eye" and everyone should read it :-)

  • thats funny.. i just got done telling a friend almost the exact same thing he's saying in the video

  • Good video!

  • Yes, it's "Look Me In The Eye." His brother, Augusten Burroughs, work is amazing, too... he's actually a writer, by profession. Start with "Running with Scissors" and go from there...

  • Hope I remembered the title of your book correctly John.  If not, apologies.

  • Read this bloke's book, Look At Me When I Talk To You, it was awesome!
