The 'When I Got The X Autism Instead Of Being Good At Math Or Science' meme is a popular trend within the neurodivergent community that subverts the 'savant' stereotype. For decades, media portrayals suggested that autism was synonymous with being a mathematical genius or a human calculator. This meme reclaims that narrative by humorously highlighting the reality of hyperfixations—where an individual might possess an encyclopedic knowledge of niche topics like 14th-century fashion, obscure video game lore, or transit maps, rather than 'useful' STEM skills. It serves as a way for the community to celebrate their diverse interests while poking fun at narrow societal expectations of neurodiversity.
