Social categorisation for beginners

[andrewducker]

1.) People who don't grok social cues = Asperger's Syndrome
2.) People who see, yet choose not to acknowledge social cues = Quite possibly Sociopathic
3.) People who only use social "cues" (hints) to communicate = Passive Aggressive

Stolen from the ever-sparkly autodidactic

I suppose that's not entirely a parallel situation, but let's say that the electrician starts hinting about his cup of tea - I am quite likely not to pick up on his social cues unless I have already consciously observed or been told that it is accepted behaviour to offer said cuppa.
