Hector, schizophrenia is not the same as dissociative disorder, though they are commonly confused. Dissociative disorder used to be called “split-personality”.
Desert Cat, the overwhelming desire to correct people could be seen as obsessive/compulsive. Self, the overwhelming desire to correct people could be seen as obsessive/compulsive, as could the overwhelming desire to correct oneself while correcting others who are correcting others.
No Joe, allow me to correct your incorrect interpretation of my correction corrections. Some corrections may be more correct than others, but I was making the point that the corrector with an overwhelming impulse to correct, especially to correct other correctors’ corrections, can correctly be seen as (a) nuts, (b) an English teacher, and or (c) a former copyeditor, most of which correctly apply to me.
There are meds for this but it’s so much more fun to see you this way. Where the hell did the cheese go? Dustbin?
Me: “I need to wash my hands. Again.”
Too many crackers?
Tony Shalhoub, eat your heart out!
Stop it, or I’ll make me stop!
Oh yeah, me and how many marines?
I couldn’t punch my way out of a wet paper bag!
I’m rubber and I’m glue. Everything I say bounces off me and sticks to me.
Sounds more like Scitzophrenia to me. I’ve got OCD, and mostly OTHER people are telling me to stop.
Where, exactly, have those hands been?
Me: Stop that!
Me: I can’t!
Me: I can’t what?!
OCD with ADD.
If Beavis had OCD:
Two thousand five hundred and sixty-four.
Two thousand five hundred and sixty-five.
Two thousand five hundred and sixty-six.
Two thousand five hundred and sixty-seven.
Two thousand five hundred and sixty-eight.
Two thousand five hundred and sixty-nine.
Henh-henh-henh. I said sixty-nine.
Seventy.
Seventy-one.
Seventy-two…
Me: “Stop that!â€Â
Me: “Make me !â€Â
Me: “I can’t!â€Â
OCD with PAD (passive/aggressive disorder)
OCD, ADD, MOUSE.
Here you go. Go and chew on this over at Charles’.

Be sure you take your pepto first.
Roses are red
Violets are Blue
I’m a schizophrenic
And so am I
I’d like to see a protein wisdom conceptual series on oppositional defiant disorder.
Protein Wisdom is Oppositional and Defiant all the time. Or hadn’t you noticed?
And the comment threads have been known to get a tad disorderly…
Especially when they veer off into Acid-Land. It doesn’t get any better than the guy bragging about getting the clap fifth-hand from Janis.
OCD dissociative disorder with Oppositional-Defiant disorder:
Me: I told you to clean up my room!!
Me: You’re not the boss of me! I’m almost an adult and I can do whatever I want!
Me: Listen – as long as I live under my roof, I will have to live by MY rules!!!
Me: And where did you put MY PIE?!?

Dude, she got it from Kristopherson, and he got it from Tina Turner. There’s a petri dish culture of it in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
So you’re saying some corrections are more correct than other corrections, if I understand your correction correctly, gail ?

Good thing this isn’t a political post, or all this correctness would be getting on my nerves.
