I've been reading "The Disaster Artist" and Wiseau's behavior keeps reminding me of a high functioning autisic: difficulty with empathy towards other people and understanding what empathy is, tendency to focus and obsess on specific fixtures and things despite not having the ability to do anything with that knowledge, his desire for other people to know nothing about him/distancing himself. On the other hand it's mentioned the dude has been in several car accidents, two of which were extremely bad, so it's possible he suffered brain damage and that accounts for his behavior.

What do you think idiot savante or just plain idiot remember he has made a movie and you have not.

IIRC he grew up in Poland and had a really lovely childhood, then he got to America and somehow made a shitload of money (possibly through a Sugar Daddy) and finally he decided he wanted to become a successful actor/producer/director. I don't he's autistic, just a sad guy who wanted to escape from his lovely life.

He spent like 85% of the 6 million dollar budget on painkillers and spent all the time he wasn't on screen slumped in a chair in the side of the set.

Periodically he'd stir and vaguely wave his arm about and mutter "more spoons. more spoooooons" and then lapse back into his torpor. Then, rested for his sex scene with lisa and that thing in her neck he'd climb aboard.

Wry and wise,
but also very sexual.

it doesn't matter, he's more famous and successful, his creative works more celebrated and viewed than literally anyone posting in this forum

the question is not what's wrong with him, it's how can we be him

Tommy Wiseau adds you back on facebook. His movie is funny too.

However the complete mystery surrounding his past and origins is worrisome.
