I can certainly relate to coming off as weird or socially awkward or unintentionally rude, and it has affected my job interview performance. People diagnosed with ADD/Asperger's don't really have a monopoly on that.

Autistic people are not awkward in the way that you are awkward, unless you're an undiagnosed autistic.
