I see you guys are taking this way too seriously so ok... I'm not invalidating anything, and for that matter I haven't noticed any such trend in media either.
In fact, I would go as far as to say that attributing "normal" behaviors to ADHD and autism is ultimately what invalidates these conditions.
My initial comment stemmed from me seeing meme after meme about ADHD and being like, wait I'm like that too, maybe I have it. But then as this trend goes on I observed that most of the people I know also have - to some degree - most symptoms mentioned in said memes.
In short I bet if one were to base the description of ADHD on the memes going round, most people could get a positive diagnosis.
My personal opinion is that this has to do with societal expectations when it comes to education and employment as they have developed over the last couple of decades.
We are slowly recognizing that our capitalist way of life with its pursuit of infinitely increasing productivity is not in line with human nature thus we're "creating" this condition that somehow everyone is suffering from to attribute feelings of inadequacy.
I agree that one can enjoy going to the movies and dislike the film at the same time, if that's what this dude is saying he's got a weird way of saying it.
But I love the positivity of your take
With the same logic there's no good food and bad food, might as well eat mud if it makes hunger go away.
Drink your piss, yay thirst gone!
Live under bridge, yay no rain!
Work 60 hour weeks get minimum wage, yay you're contributing to society woohoo
Correct me if I'm reading your post wrong, but you stated that people should chill out about this declaration of war because he didn't actually declare a war, he just casually dropped some bombs.
I understand that to mean that people should accept the irrationality because somehow the US doesn't have a system in place to police itself.
Curious how that would play out if other countries did the same. Oh no we didn't declare war, it was this fat idiot Hirohito going rogue again, oopsie. Time for peace now, thank you for your attention to this matter.
I've not gone back to reddit since the big exodus a couple of years ago, was it? Aside from checking specific threads about pc issues I run into etc... Well actually I never had an account on reddit tbh, I was just browsing so I don't know if it counts.
Oh jeez I'm sorry dude it's ok here's a point up or whatever we call it here. For what it's worth I remember I did enjoy this one movie where he plays these twin writers or something. And that was double Cage right there
Yes. I am the author of the post and I decide how serious it is. Who the fuck are you, the friend with the cleft asshole?
