I have a couple of very good friends who have Aspergers, and by and large have learned (through hard and painful work, and also luck, because they're on the mild end of the spectrum) how to function in mainstream society. They do still screw up interactions, occasionally. They find it upsetting, because they are decent people who don't like hurting others, and because they don't like the feeling that they don't know how to fit in with the way the rest of the world works.

So while in many ways I wish society could be more tolerant of non-neurotypical behaviour, I get REALLY pissed off by people who think claiming a 'diagnosis' entitles them to a get out of jail free card for being an inconsiderate ass, when not only are they ruining other people's days, they're also making things harder for people like my friends.
