In reply to How much is a lobotomy nowadays?, posted by utopizen on December 25, 2002, at 23:28:19
> I want a lobotomy, I always did- how much do they go for? I hope my insurance could pay for it. I have some mild social anxiety and I pace around sometimes when I'm bored. Maybe a lobotomy would work on me. Speaking of which, anyone else pace? It really doesn't set me far apart from an Asperger's person, only I have a high degree of insight into others (which isn't helping my social anxiety).
I think that only the government knows for sure how much a lobotomy costs (Now I've got Ramones music playing in my head). I doubt if insurance would cover it, and if they did it would probably be easy to find out how much :) Pacing? Yeah, I am a pacer. I've got the taut leg musculature of a feral cat! I think I burn a few thousand calories a week doing precisely that. When I was going to school and had to sit down (and be captive) that translated into restless legs and fidgeting and pencil tapping, chewing, etc. Do Asperger folks pace a bunch? I hadn't heard of that. .. .. .. ..
