Explosive disorder affects 16 million

I have an explosive disorder too, especially after eating a lot of beans.

[bkepley]

I know a lady who rammed a bulldozer that was blocking her driveway.

WHY I OUGHTTA...!

New Iraqi roadside recruits?

[ClearCase_guy]

I suffer from this disorder.

Reading stories about bogus disorders makes me want to explode.

What's up with the diseasification of America? Self control no longer exists, and people can't be judged because "they're sick." But the bast part is that everyone is acting like this is groundbreaking -- as if anyone with common sense didn't already know that lots of people are born with bad tempers and (SHOCKER) their tempers get inflamed in traffic jams.

I wasn't pissed when I broke your nose I've got IED.

I slowed down and flipped off the anti-war protesters/pro-saddam advocates outside the Federal Building in Honolulu a few weeks ago.

It felt good.

I suggest they call it ASD; Absence of Self-Discipline.

Our society's continuing efforts to excuse everything that requires self-control makes me want to explode.

I know a lady who weighs about 90 pounds who got out of her car and went to the pickup truck behind her and punched a guy. She said, "His beefy arm was just sitting there sticking out the window and he just sat there smirking at me so I punched his arm." The guy just laughed!

[mtbopfuyn]

If you put a name to it, you don't have to take responsibility for your misbehaviors.

[nmh]

Ah, another excuse to validate OUT OF CONTROL BEHAVIOR or more commonly known as LACK OF SELF CONTROL. How nice!

Welcome to the Human Race. No one gets out alive.

What's up with the diseasification of America?

It goes back to the extension of the state into police powers, in particular with adding the hospitals to the justice system. That was a couple centuries ago, and continues even now right in front of our eyes. Medicine, psychology, the justice and corrections system, and the military barracks and state schools are all part of one institution. Those who are coming up with these new medical problems are part of the state, as is the press that writes about them.
