Xun posted:It just makes saying or doing seditious acts are illegal. It's anti discrimination thing only applies to racism/various classes (plus suppressing discussion of discrimination in Singapore too if some expat websites are to be believed), govt gave 100k to a conversion therapy group in 2006 and still promotes that so yeah I guess the LGBTQ are just inherently a danger to social harmony lmao. So they have anti discrimination laws but they still promote gay conversion therapy?

Mad because my lazy rear end boyfriend nearly got me killed? posted:Hi ladies and gents. Woo where do I start here. I’m 22 and have been with my 31 year old husband (well, fiancé) for 3 years now. When we first got together there were clear issues with his maturity levels. He was pretty childish and still living at home. As time went on this kinda dropped though and he began acting like a normal adult. What I’m saying here only really scratches the surface of his previous behaviour but I don’t want to go too far into it. Enjoy the solid age gap and she already knows he's a lazy rear end garbage person but is still with him. Also OP is already deleted from reddit. Guessing from all the deleted 'man baby' comments it was a mod that did it.

Anti discrimination laws doesn't mean it protects all minorities/classes, only the ones the government recognizes. And if they value ~social harmony~ so much and see LGBTQ as being abnormal and disrupting the harmony, well  time to try to fix those troublemakers!

I am 99% sure that Tourette syndrome doesn't just make you use inappropriate synonyms while talking, does it? And even if it does, does he think the only objectionable thing he did that night was use the word tits? Tourettes isn't going to make you be a loud crass rear end in a top hat about unattractive women in public while talking with your friends who then, when confronted, doubles down by calling her unattractive and asking to see her tits. An what did he do and say in the version his friends are telling that makes him look even worse?

Quick googling says it's a symptom 10% of those who have tourette's suffer from. Obviously, you're far more likely to notice those people than someone who compulsively shrugs.

I do not have tourettes myself but I used to have a friend who did and I definitely got the impression both from him and from medical literature that you swear impulsively as a tic, at random times just like the compulsive shrugging you mention, which is a completely different thing than just using swearing or inappropriate synonyms in a sentence

Yeah, the swears aren't randomly in a conversation, it's an uncontrollable tic. You don't just accidentally say tits instead of breasts in normal conversation.

There is the caveat that certain sights/sounds/experiences might trigger a tic, but the tic word would just be spoken/shouted alone. It would never be part of a constructed sentence. I could actually believe that someone with a strong case of Tourette's who already had a tic that involved shouting the n-word might be triggered to do so by seeing a black person. It sounds ridiculous to those who don't know tics work, but it's plausible. What would not be plausible would be any kind of rhetoric accompanying it. I don't believe the "big tits" asshat at all, especially since he specifically mentions he chose to make that lie. I can believe the n-word shouter, provided that was all he was shouting, with no other description or racist rhetoric. Meme Poker Party fucked around with this message at 19:02 on Dec 14, 2018 |

I feel sorry for those people because you know a lot of people who are not familiar with actual tourette's just assume they are retarded like they do with people who have CP. therobit fucked around with this message at 19:04 on Dec 14, 2018 |

I have Tourette's. I was diagnosed by a neurologist as a kid. I don't have any verbal tics in the way of words, but I did have one or two with my throat that made weird sounds (thankfully those stopped manifesting much as an adult). Growing up as the kid who made weird movements and sounds he couldn't control well but Totally Wasn't Retarded was a lot of fun.

There’s a woman on Twitch who is making crazy money as the girl with Tourette’s. She randomly whistles a lot and does insert random curses into normal sentences. Her biggest trigger is the word “banana” and if you type it in her chat you get permanently banned.

If she's integrating supposed tic words into sentences then she's playing it up intentionally. Not to say that the tic is fake, but she's probably intentionally constructing sentences with her tic in mind just to be able to say them. I'd guess that's exactly what I'd expect out of a streamer anyway. In 2018 even our neurological disorders can be monetized lol what a world.

Our next door neighbor where we used to live had a son with Tourettes. He would just grunt and make these random shrugging motions. Never shouted curses.

My (24F) family's Christmas cards and the death of my grandma (88F)quote:My mom's mother has lived with us for the past 19 years. We had some family photos taken this summer and got some textless Christmas cards of them. My grandma passed away last week and we're not sure what to do. Our cards go mostly to family and I don't think most of them know that anything has happened. Do we get new ones reprinted? Or how do we gracefully announce her death without making the cards feel like some funeral save-the-dates?
