Has anyone read this? It sounds... different. Intriguing, even. A book written by an autistic/OCD/whatever guy would be an interesting change of pace, methinks.

I think it would for you too. A good break from science fiction, fantasy and philosophy.

It's really weird to read. Everything is described in feet and cardinal directions (not "It was far away and tall" but "it was to the west and 18 feet tall"). And all the colors are specified with their hex code. "It was a light teal color (33FFFF)."

ullillia is absolutely batshit, I've checked up on his site every few years since... god knows when, and he is fucking off his rails.

I've already spent hours and hours reading through his website, reading the book by him I think would be a lot less rewarding than reading about his fucked up life and habits.

Going by the two pages posted above, his book is a continuation of his website, the same obsessing about the same things, but made into a story format.

To the guy saying this guy is not an autist but just has OCD, you're wrong. This fella definitely has some sort of autism. If you're in doubt, read his website.

We don't usually pick on him. He's like a nega-chris-chan. In every way that Chris-chan is creepy and rude and mean and just gross, Uli is interesting, cute, and creative. Uli is the good kind of weird, awkward autist. Chris is the bad.

Chris is the villain we have. Uli is the hero we don't deserve.

>2 - Middle School
>2.4.7 - The "honking" toilet
> I flush a toilet and just after the water settles down, it gives a "honking" sound. It's a vibration of a medium-low frequency (about 200 Hz and 120 Hz mixed together) and it lasts for about one second. I, quite literally, brought my tape player in to record this sound as I loved it so much. The janitor said that something in the toilet was broken or loose and needed repair. This was one of those floor toilets with a seat and a stall around it. As far as I know, I have no traces of this on tape (and with 50+ tapes to sort though....), but if I hear a related sound, I should almost immediately recognize it.

it never felt like uli's "condition" escalated, he's always been on a constant level when it comes to recording dreams, memorizing minute details and overvaluing his ability to measure things (like weight and colour hue) by simply seeing/holding them. in fact, he might even have gotten better considering all those fobias he has overcome

also this thing also stood out in my mind when discussing ulillillia

>#24 If I were to donate money, I'd put it...: Let's say I won a sweepstakes, but there were strings attached. I won $250 and was to donate 20% of that (which is $50). The guidelines state that the donation can go to whatever charity or the related I wanted, as long as it was donated, otherwise, I don't get any of the money. Above all, I'd put that $50 toward the environment and to fight global warming, and I wouldn't hesitate to do it. $50 toward the environment, in the long run, is like $200 toward Red Cross (and that's without inflation) or even $1000 for a coastal metro area. I get this for one reason. With continued global warming due to things like CO2 (carbon dioxide) and CH4 (methane), deforestation, etc., the polar ice caps and Antarctica's ice sheets would melt and raise sea level. It's already happening and it seems to be getting worse. With sea level rise, coastal cities, where most live, will frequently be flooded (or even be permanently flooded and cost a huge amount. With flooded cities, the residents would have to move elsewhere and it would cause chaos all over. If Katrina was bad, think about it happening along every coastline around the entire planet. While $50 toward environmental protection may not seem like much at first, it'll amount to a few hundred in the long run. What about the Red Cross? With a lot of climate refugees, they'll easily get overwhelmed. I, thus, would think that tackling the global warming issue should be next to the top for priorities, almost tied with that of fixing the economy.

Yeah, I've seen that, and I do think it's enough to dispel any notion that there is any significant disconnect from reality or that he, say, lacks any kind of sympathy (though his creation of the superpowerful and benevolent character of Knuckles should be evidence enough against that).

I was more interested in the Freudian psychoanalytic angle brought up in the second post
