A right word is gravel. Gravel is fabulous, magnificent, fun to say, and makes my brain feel good, practically giving me a good physical sensation as well. Crumbly is another good word, especially when compared with the last name of my friend Wes.

Crumbly Baumgartner. Say it out loud. No, seriously, do it. Tell me that ( Read more... )

You should write a book....have your own TV show etc. :O

benchilada May 16 2006, 02:54:07 UTC

I agree! Tell your friends!!!

I totally need to grill you about this stuff when we next get together. I'm especially curious about how your personality and the way you conduct your life may influence the way in which the syndrome becomes manifest - in other words; if you were, for some reason, Southern Baptist and were ideologially opposed to vulgarity and obscenity, would your specific repression of the use of such words then "build up" until it just came out when you didn't want it to? Is it possible that those who have such outbursts might not have them as frequently if they just yelled "armadillo fuck!" for fun a few times a day.

I dunno, Ben. This doesn't sound like Tourette's to me. Sounds like you're just a New Yorker.

Sounds good to me. I'm a fascinating cesspool of neurological disorders, and I like to think I have an interesting way of describing them.

As for the "build up" question, the answer is yes. One can "hold in" Tourette's symptoms, but not for very long (well, I can't for very long, but some can) and when they are finally released, they're way worse than usual.

Regrettably, more outbursts of a conscious nature do not reduce the number of involuntary ones.

Otherwise I wouldn't have been saying "If! If! If! If!" and walking really, really funny, like Ministry of Silly Walks funny, at Schnuck's tonight.

Can I have a nickname?

benchilada May 16 2006, 02:57:32 UTC

Yes. But you'll have to wait until my brain assigns one.
But I'll give it a think.

HOLY FUCK I do that too

I've taken to calling Aleta "baked bean", because I think the idea of just ONE baked bean is hilarious for some reason. I dont know why. Or "bacon bit". I actually called somebody "pants" for a while too, or "pantsface".

It's common for me to come up with hilariously convuluted and obscene insults, like "cock shitting poop fucker" or "dick lozenge" out of the blue. So maybe I have a bit of the tourettes thing too.

I also do the right/wrong words thing too. "Beard" is a horrible word.

benchilada May 16 2006, 02:59:29 UTC

Yeah, you've been agreeing with WAAAAAY to many of the Fuckbrain things I do to not have some mild Tourette's stuff to go with your OCD.

Cock shitting is damn funny.
Calling somebody a "cock shitter" must be fun.

Beard is kinda neutral to me.
I fucking hate hippopatomous.

I once called someone a "sperm gurgling cuntwiper" and I have no idea where it came from.

I was drunk at the time and she is one (A sperm gurgling cuntwiper, I mean), but those aren't words I would have normally thrown together. In most instances, I have a natural aversion to the "c-word".

But there it was. I said it.

Sweet Merciful Crappily Crap!

My good friend Thomas, is actually startled when I refer to him by his name instead of "Chief", "Champ" or "Sport".

This led to me tending to refer to people by their last names. The brain leprosy then caused these names to mutate. The fact that I occasionally do not hear things right does not help this.

I always called it brain leprosy. I am scared.

benchilada May 16 2006, 03:09:04 UTC

Yeah, I have friends that are confused by the same thing.
Scott is Mr. Mann.
Charles Mueller is chuckdawg or Chuck D.

The mutation is a curious process, isn't it? It's like watching a language evolve, only over a period of months instead of centuries.

Perhaps you do have a leper in your brain.

I need to contact my neurologist and see if I can get MRI shots.

So, what I am seeing here is a vision like this:

There's you. On the couch. Its not a very nice couch. If this weren't television you might think it to be a bit manky. The cat has definitely been at it in all the ways a cat can.

Oh yes, you're in your underwear, hunched over a bit. There is a beer perched on your knee.

You are endless repeating the words 'gourd' and 'erogenous zones' just like Graham Chapman in that one Monty Python sketch, testing them for "woodiness" but there's no one to throw a bucket of water at you to snap you out of it.
