‘Fish…you got some ‘splainin to do.Rumor has it that ' Soulfish ' has a drawer full of unwashed game jocks worn by Wilson . I doubt he will sell them until after Wilson's induction into the HOF in 2069 .![]()
It’s Ciara’s first kid with the rapper she had a baby with. Future. The guy she was doing the ‘Let’s Ride’ with before hopping on the Danderwich.Is that his kid? Poor kid is embarrassed, looking at the floor thinking "I hope nobody recognizes me."
High functioning on the spectrum perhaps. My 9 year old son is super high functioning - they want to bump him up grades, gifted school, all that but he has those “quirks” - he can socialize but it’s clear he’d rather not unless there is a goal to it.Sometimes when I see the dude the first things i think is - Aspergers... low spectrum.
Awkward socially
Robotic communication
Singularly focused
Difficulty connecting with others
Seemingly self absorbed
Detail oriented
Their ability to be so single minded and focused can result in unique success as adults...
And i'm not at all making light of the disorder. I just think at times that there's more at play when it come to his 'special' personality.
I mean, Elon Musk has it. Of the famous folks with the disorder he's probably one who i'd say is similarly developed. Highly successful, painfully awkward, seemingky narcissistic, but at times contrastingly caring... but then again, self serving...
Dan Akroyd, Anthony Hopkins... and quite a few others have it as well.
And the "Let's Ride" shirt that I spottedWho is giving him business advice, because opening up a store that sells his branded gear after the years he has had is like opening up pork only butcher shop in the middle east. "We got these cool socks, we have the orange and blue too." He is oblivious.
Engineers, definitely. And Navy nuke operators. It's what makes us special!High functioning on the spectrum perhaps.

Russ and his corniness along with what you listed could very well be high functioning ASD. I’ve worked as a shrink with this population as well (one of my specialty areas) - professional gamblers, engineers, etc -
It makes a lot of sense.
Interestingly kids with ASD have been linked to OCD moms (I think it’s like 60 percent ish) correlation - I know I’m on the spectrum in pretty much the same way as my son is though (I have an ocd mom and my sons mom is ocd)Engineers, definitely.

I'm second-of-five kids (no longer kids though!). My youngest sister (#5) lives with me and the wifey because she's what I call 'profoundly' autistic and can't really take care of herself. Though she can recite the minutest detail of pretty much any musician's catalog or life. My little brother was discharged from the military because even though he could program the heck out of computers he really wasn't suited to having a security clearance. Now he's what I would call marginally functional. I'm pretty sure I'm also 'on the spectrum', just enough to be an electrical engineer... I'm also pretty sure my mom was as well, just based on her lack of outward reaction when my dad passed. Among a lot of other stuff. I fully believe it runs in families, and is probably genetic.Interestingly kids with ASD have been linked to OCD moms (I think it’s like 60 percent ish) correlation - I know I’m on the spectrum in pretty much the same way as my son is though (I have an ocd mom and my sons mom is ocd)
Go figure. It explains why I enjoy neuropsychology over typical psycho babbling - but it’s such a diverse area within itself speaking of ASD.
And remember kids, it’s a spectrum, so we are all on it somewhere. Same for all psychology (in my opinion) -
And a lot of it is made up for insurance purposes but I digress
