“There is a huge boom in autism right now because inat­ten­tive moth­ers and com­pet­i­tive dads want an expla­na­tion for why their dumb-​ass kids can’t com­pete aca­d­e­m­i­cally, so they throw money into the happy laps of shrinks . . . to get back diag­noses that help explain away the defi­cien­cies of their junior morons. I don’t give a  shit what these crack­er­jack whack jobs tell you - yer kid is NOT autis­tic. He’s just stupid. Or lazy. Or both.”

I don’t get it - where’s the punch line? Oh, his career. That is funny!

  2. This is kind of like the whole “Merry Christmas” deba­cle - just ignore it, and it’ll go away. Feed it, re-​post it, get up in arms about it, and it’ll draw more atten­tion to it than it’s worth.

  3. Which is why he doesn’t get men­tioned by name and is instead asso­ci­ated with words like irrel­e­vant. :-)
