The poster boy for D.I.T.S. is Michael Moore of "Fahrenheit 911" fame.

It's "Kerrette" syndrome.

By ones, by twos, by the vanload, by the busload and trainload, virtually every person within a hundred mile radius who had Tourette's syndrome, began to arrive at the museum and buy tickets, or in the case of extreme twitchiness, have them purchased for them by their designated driver.

Oh, dear. Oh dear oh dear. This was worth reading just to put this picture in my head.

Is there some kind of support group or government program for this disorder? Man, do I need to get in contact with them...

I have suffered from DITS since the Clinton years and may have first displayed symptoms when Jimmy Carter won the election in '76.

This ailment can be minimized by surrounding yourself with FReepers and using self-management techniques.

If that fails, purchase as many pillows as you can during the Winter White Sale and a box of ammo for your favorite handgun and then plaster pillows with pictures of the most offensive of Democrats and string from clothesline for target practice. Pounding a pillow is just not sufficient in the worst of DITS cases and major therapy is recommended.

Terrific rant! The live thread - link to Howlin - is very amusing and helps get us through the evening. It is most valuable while watching the muted TV , since every word spoken from that podium is a lie

I have it I have it, I'm sure! I just didn't know what to call it. "Extreme twitchiness" coupled with something akin to "road rage". Its DITS for sure.
