What am I missing? Or is this just not funny?

I think it’s the not funny. Or she’s autistic (barely) and socially can’t process of it was a comment or not.

Autism has no visual cues. It's not like Down Syndrome where the patients look Chinese. Saying someone doesn't look autistic is like saying someone doesn't look like they're missing an appendix.

Edit: saw the fine text in the last panel. I gave the comic too much credit. It's just not funny and it's the girl not knowing if that's a compliment or not.

I know there are no physical symptoms with autism, just assuming I have missed something topical in order for this to be funny, clearly just not funny.

I'll add that being autistic is a thing now, like you can subscribe to it/ have it, enjoy.

Autism is the lack of understanding social cues and interactions and how to appropriately respond to them. It is poking fun at her not knowing how to react because she is actually autistic. It isn't that funny. They tried a bit hard to be clever but the right person might get a kick out of it. I'm not that person.
