It was indeed a good line. On reflection probably not the most opportune moment to make my point!

That's a very bland form of tourettes you've got....

He correctly said the conditions were real but over diagnosed.....I know what he means but there are certainly bigger problems in the world.

I think autism is in most family lines, especially within males on sliding scales. It's an umbrella term covering many conditions. Most aren't positive for the person affected nor for those dealing with it, though certain types of autism can create hyper focused people who go on to improve the world.

Chris has really wagged your tail but that last post was a joke.

Wagged my tail Stirling? As a family we have had to put up with far mare than that idiot has to say. Said it before on here but i dont have any time for bullies. Cant make up my mind if he is a bully or just ignorant. Possibly both. Who knows until they stand in front of him.
He cant differentiate between autism and tourettes and suggested that people with dyslexia were just thick.
Not clever really is it when you dig beneath his laddish bonhomie, which you seem to have fallen for.

I've no problem with 'laddish bonhomie' which seems like a good description.....though obviously it's not always tactful.

To be serious, I've seen how hard proper autism can be for families, when it's not mild it can be difficult, and it's lifetime difficult. So you have my recognition.

Thank you Stirling.
If this was about race or maybe physical disability he would be long gone from this forum.
Just goes to show how far we still have to go in regards to mental health recognition.
As i said in an earlier post,that was belittled by ccg, we do find humour in it.
Front line ambulance work over 3 decades in London. You either laugh or cry. Never cried once. (Might be the autism).

Beep beep beep. Is that reversing i hear?
You have gone from saying they were made up conditions to claiming a diagnosis of autism relating to a film role.
You were unable to differenciate between autism and tourettes a few posts ago therefore the 160 iq is a stretch.
Any further comments on dyslexics just being thick?
