I’m pretty sure it was you Scorch who took offence to people diagnosing him online. But now you’ve done the same for Tony Yayo. Also, why can’t it be both? He could have autism and be a coke head. I’m pretty sure I’ve never said anything about Meltzer as I’ve never watched him really. And your right, and it would be the perfect forum response if he was. And @Keith Houchenis right. Im Just not a big fan of Autism just being lumped as 1 big spectrum: my kids in terms of Autism are nothing like each other which makes some family be dismissive because of it. Until they are educated. Edited July 4, 2022 by Hannibal Scorch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say you watched him. You didn’t like that people were diagnosing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the same way pointing out someone is acting like they are on drugs doesn’t mean they are*.  *Jeff Hardy and Sunny exempt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted July 4, 2022 Author Share Posted July 4, 2022 Strange how Toot Toot Tone only acts like he’s on the Gianluca Vialli when it’s AEW and not where the proper family business interests are concerned. No wonder Big Daddy Shaddy keeps him at arms length away from the family silver if this he how he is with his train set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I agree with that about Meltzer. As for Khan, he reminds me a lot of Rob Naylor. Huge mark who got himself into the business and doesn’t have the awareness to play it cool. He pulled those same big eyed expressions on that disaster Highspots episode with Matt Sydal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Chris B Posted July 4, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted July 4, 2022 I don't think 'the behaviour someone is being mocked for reminds me of family members who've been diagnosed with Asperger's, so the mocking is leaving me cold' is as unreasonable a point-of-view as it's being painted as.

It's not on me if you post stuff that gets called out. 1 hour ago, Hannibal Scorch said: I know how hard it is to diagnose someone on the Autism spectrum, that was my point That's not what you said though. You diagnosed from afar, got called on it and tried to back track. And if you know how hard it is to diagnose that makes throwing it around willy nilly all the worse, surely.

Chili Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 This thread should be preserved in a capsule as an example of when we went right down maple street and had a circular argument about something that in the haul, didn't matter in the slightest. We are ever evolving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t call it an obsession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
