> I don't think that I'm "on the spectrum" but I'm quite bad at predicting social responses to stimuli. I don't know when a joke will get a laugh or be offensive, when a comment here will get voted up or down, when flirting or a complement is harassment, etc.
Interestingly, all of these also have a cultural aspect. One can be excellent at predicting all these reactions in one culture and be a complete failure at it in a different culture, even though you are the same person.
