Fenxis 99 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I don't find this funny at all. My son was diagnosed with Autism. Fair enough though wasn't intended to be funny, just overly tired and cranky. My apologies. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 your understanding is off. That's a generalization that is not at all accurate. Not all autistic people are the same, and when you use it as some kind of weakness, that they are acting like "autistic ****ers", it's an insult to many, especially to fathers of autistic kids like us. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Fenxis 99 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Thank you for the correction, there's enough misconceptions around mental health w/o the recent trend of autistim-related memes adding to the pile. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 Blake Wheeler offered Paul Stastny his #26, knowing his family's history with the number. Stastny declined. Instead he chose #25, no doubt a nod to his best friend, Alex Steen, and his father. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

serge 904 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 The Seattle hockey team looks like its going to happen...While the Vegas ticket drive was a huge success, Seattle basically crushed it.. Its a perfect fit for the NHL as now there will be a balanced number of teams.. Link to post Share on other sites

doox 15 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Ah, sorry - I usually only check this thread and a few others. Yeah, we can claim how the NFL loves/hates certain teams, how the NBA reffing is rigged, or how the NHL's punishment system needs overhauling, but to see blatant abuse with no attempt to disguise it is pretty shocking.
