Autism Forums

Good day, bonjour, guten tag, buenas dias, bom dia, buongiorno, jin tian hao, konichiwa. *Shrugs* Well, the internet _is_ global.

Welcome

lol that's some greeting and introduction. Welcome to AutismForums. As my user name says I'm called SmallGrayBox, a weird user name with an even weirder explanation, so most call me SGB for short lol

I'm glad I achieved my goal of making someone laugh. As you can probably guess, one of my specialist subjects is greetings, (I can say hello in five languages,) and I thought I'd put it to some positive use.

Ah yes you did indeed make me laugh lol I have many friends around the world, Finland, Norway, Poland, Germany, Holland.. So I'm getting a mix class of languages lol though it seems the first thing people teach me are swearwords lol I've no idea why lol

You can say hello in five languages.. I can curse in just as many languages and yes I do put them to use.. though no on this forum, but it comes in handy to say how you feel about someone Though its fun to make up words or use real words that sound bad but aren't and confuse people... by saying "Oooh Futtock!"

Futtock: shrouds are rope, wire or chain links in the rigging of a traditional square rigged ship. They run from the outer edges of a top downwards and inwards to a point on the mast or lower shrouds, and carry the load of the shrouds that rise from the edge of the top. This prevents any tendency of the top itself to tilt relative to the mast.

Its having a weird sense of humour that's helped me out of some very dark and depressive times

I too like to fake swear at people sometimes. My favourite is cheyo, a neologism of mine that actually means "Thanks in advance."

A friend translated SmallGrayBox into Finish for me as PieniHarmaaLaatikko... long and bordering story as to why.. but knowing the persons cheeky sense of humour I though I'd check it my self... just incase it had something funny in it I was planning to use the Finish version as with the English version of the dame user name.

I think it was the word 'Pieni' that got me a bit suspicious But it does indeed just mean 'Small' in Finish lol

I believe in Finnish that it's the surname of the actor who married Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie that you need to watch out for. _Some_where in Scandinavia, anyway. ^_^
