I have seen immature posters on other sites call each other "aspie" to imply a clueless person who doesn't get it. Whether "it" be a joke, the topic of convrsation, etc.

These people use it as a put-down. As I said, I don't have aspergers, but I do have mental illness, and it just seems...I dunno. Wrong.

Edit: not to imply that those with aspergers shouldn't use this term, I am bothered by those who do NOT suffer using it.
