Lol, is that how you see yourself Jack?
Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

There, deleted it. Won't post about such things ever again for fear someone will assume I am making a statement about an entire population. I don't appreciate being talked to as if I said people with schizophrenia cannot not have a high IQ, or cannot do equations. Never said it, never meant it, never even thought it. I know very intelligent ppl with schizophrenia as well. My uncle among them. What I think about people with schizophrenia, and pointing out a possible misdiagnosis to a staff which has never heard of aspergers, are two different conversations.

Hey, there's no requirement here that people should agree on anything. No need to delete a post, no need to change your mind just because others disagree.

Harden the fuck up. :P

Yes, keep pitching a fit.  :smashviolin: Is that what this place has come to? Please tell me I'm not watching a PC-language walking-on-eggshells snitfest.

My thoughts exactly.

I vote to create a requirement that everyone must agree with Jack about everything. :P

There are loads of forums on the internet.  Many have posts deleted every day.   Others do not have a 'delete' button at all.

Here, however, we have a unique concept of having a working 'delete' button,  but using it will prompt criticism from other members.   New members should know this. :tard:

Well, it is rather obvious so yes, they *should* know this. :P

The delete button is a good option. Though hopefully it isn't further used in response to my thoughts.
