POST EDIT: If anything, considering those terms "ableist" is WAAAAAAAAAAY more offensive to me than a burger made of ass cheeks ever would be. It implies that someone with Asperger's is inherently disabled in some way or form, and... I dunno. That just sort of feels wrong to me.
The ENTIRE use of phrases like these is to poke fun at those with Asperger's! It's saying "hey you have Asperger's and that's why you did this action that is contrary to how I think people should behave."
I'd rather not be considered disabled for the sake of having a label to make a joke objectively offensive.
