    You’re forgetting the future stages:

    • holy crap! im autistic
    • hey everyone, im autistic
    • okay, i guess it just explains everything
    • nobody seems to care that much
    • alright, i’ll go find a good-paying tech/accounting/science job now
    • proud to be ASD, if anyone cares
