It's very confusing how that happened, isn't it? There must be some error with my copy and paste keys. Maybe a virus has infected the clipboard area of my computer. Or possibly...
> Some autistic people both get and make jokes of the more “traditional” variety. But some people with autism simply don’t find popular joke types or structures amusing. While they may get the point of a funny anecdote or something that is visually or physically funny, they may struggle with more contrived types of humour.
> As a child, for example, I would laugh until I cried at something funny in real life—but I hated cartoons that were motivated by repetitive punchlines, like "Tom and Jerry." I knew what was coming, every time, and I didn’t think it was funny the first time—let alone the hundreds of other times it was on the screen.
> People with autism might also struggle with certain types of humour because they take things literally. My client Danielle told me, “I love comedy. I’ve even done stand up. I love hilarious stories, but I hate joke-punchline stuff, because half the time I don’t get the punchline. I need to think about it because I usually attach a different meaning to it than everyone else seems to.”
