In case there is any misunderstanding of what I've said, at no stage have I insinuated that Sam has Aspergers.
I have known some young people with this condition and IMO, they have not resembld SAM. Asperers' sufferers can, as stated above, range over a wide spectrum of intelligence from being slow learners to being geniuses. Usually their biggest difficulty is in fitting in socially with others. They tend to be introverted and have difficulty expressing emotions. Many that I have known have been acutely aware of their dificiencies on a social level and had tried very hard to overcome this condition. My favourite example of someone who has aspergers is Yvgeny Kissin, the young Russian pianist. There are documentaries on him showing how he has battled with the condition. Generally IMO, aspergers sufferers can come across as being rather "formal" and "stiff" in their social interaction with others - but, at the same time, are very sweet people, in my experience.

Bugger off he is an attention seeking twat is all, Psychologists would label him ADD but I would label him as not having sufficient love/nurturing/discipline as a child. Just needs the occassional twatting to keep him behaving normal.

Also I too have not come out and conclusively stated that he has AS. All I've said is that the classic signs are there. Even those that have tried to shoot down this theory have inadvertently supported the notion.
Night night folks.

Problem with that is he doesnt have a lack of empathy, he knows his comments questions and actions will create a reaction in people not only the person he is interacting with but also those watching too. He anticipates the reaction, in fact he revels in it.

You are seriously grasping at straws trying to diagnose a person like Sam with Asperger's.

Shiner - thanks for that wikipedia definition - I can see, in every word of it, descripions of young people I've known , who had/have AS.
It's plain to see, Sam does does not have this condition. But he does seem to lack empathy for others - which makes him act cruelly without a second thought. He does seem to derive pleasure from being able to hurt people in this way. Also claims quite an amount of power over others through using these tactics. It really is a form of bullying, as he is managing to attack people's self-confidence and self-esteeem. Have not seen him building anybody up in the house. I would imagine he learnd these skills when he was very young. I could be wrong - but I would guess - he learned to direct this kind of thing towards his mother - and did not have a strong father to keep him in line. On another thread, the question has been asked - why Josie? One theory might be that Josie is known as the "mother" figure in the JJJ relationship [also the baby, of course, when thumb-sucking] - so not to carry this theory too far, I would think lot of Sams' "power" comes from his relationship - or lack of- with his mother, or mother figure in his life as a child.

Sam knows exactly what he's doing and is deliberately being an a*sehole, so long may it continue whilst the dross remains in the house.

There's definitely something wrong with him. Sorry but that just isn't normal.

One, but not the same.

I think BB primed him what to do before he went in and he is doing it all the way, LOL.
Some of the time he is funny and cute, then I want to slap him the next minute, he is one of those annoying type.

Sam had antagonised the BB applicants long before he got into the house. He, IMO, was chosen to go in because of what he had said he would do to shake things up. Granted, it's possible he does get some coaching too.

The difference between Sam and an AS 'sufferer' is that Sam fully expects, and understands, the reactions he gets....people with Asperger's dont...

Sam is not reminiscent of Aspergers. More like ADHD, but not aspergers at all.
Housemate most fitting the symptoms of aspergers is John James. Very much so. Last edited by Alpertinator; 05-08-2010 at 01:21 PM. |

I wouldn't regard Sam as having AS. Wouldn't deny he has some qualities that are not very endearing to others.
As for JohnJ, I think his is an anger issue -pure and simple. Also, i think he can be controlled by older women - especially his mother. Last edited by rosebay11; 05-08-2010 at 01:26 PM. |

No. All I'm saying is that he displays signs of having a very mild form of autism (not saying he's autistic mind) which can be so slight that it often goes undiagnosed, where in layman's terms, their brains are not wired exactly the same as most for social interaction and they tend to say the type things that most people keep to themselves (or only say behind peoples backs) to avoid embarrassment. I'm not suggesting he has no control over what he is saying as some of the "experts" on here think I am either because that is an entirely different thing altogether.
Sheesh.
