Conduct disorders describe a group of mental and behavioral disorders characterized by persistent patterns of behavior considered to be irritable, argumentative, aggressive, or disobedient. To be classified as having a conduct disorder, a pers on must display these behaviors to a much greater extent than their peers. Examples of behaviors that can result from a conduct disorder include:
frequent lying
aggressive and violent behavior
vandalism
persistent theft
alcohol or drug use

Liberalism described perfectly. We always knew they were crazy.

[Jim Robinson]

Yup. Democrats.

[snuffy smiff]

It’s why they were so instrumental in closing down so many of the mental health facilities...

[Jane Long]

Lol!! To a T.

[BenLurkin]

So being a rotten person is now a “disorder”?

[DoughtyOne]

Honestly, I thought this was going to morph into having strong beliefs you wouldn’t cave on, as in Conservatives are mentally unstable.

Can’t believe we dodged that bullet.

Wife says I have this
I’m teaching it to my boys
Don’t listen to anything this article has to say about opposing stupid authority figures it’s perfectly rational calm and very important in today’s world mind you I live in California so understand

[Olog-hai]

Yes; they’re ODD, don’t you know.

It’s gotten to the point where the Freudians just mock us openly by making up these gratuitously ridiculous acronyms.

[HiTech RedNeck]

This really begs the question. We need a context. Some things are quite sensible to defy.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Oh maybe this was just loading the gun.

The shot comes later.

[DoughtyOne]

That’s a decent observation. I’ve been thinking about that as well.

[SecondAmendment]

Is this condition restricted to people, or can a State ( i.e. CA ) have this as well ?

[HiTech RedNeck]

Anyhow I’m even semi sympathetic to modern “liberals” here.

One might try to defy drought by drinking mud, if there is no pure water to be had in the vicinity. Is it the best thing? No. But it beats drying up.

I’ve been surprised how hard it is to find a good enunciation of gospel. It’s as politically incorrect as heck, plus it cuts against people’s pride. But without it, the siren song of government “gospel” will easily dominate.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Argh, fix tag

[9422WMR]

I’ve been told I have early onset geriatric profanity disorder.
@/!);#~¥&!!
LOL

[DesertRhino]

What about cooperative obedient disorder?

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks HTR.

"Wife says I have this
I’m teaching it to my boys"

After the state convicted my son at the age of 12 of being an "unruly and unmanageable child" they forced him to submit to a psychiatric evaluation. At the end of his evaluation the psychiatrist sat down with my wife, my son and myself and delivered her diagnosis. My son suffered from Oppositional Defiant Disorder.

That's odd I said. My wife immediately face-palmed. My son snickered and the clueless little dipshit missed the joke and thought I was being serious with her and went merrily on her way telling us what a horrible disorder it was and how difficult it was going to be to treat. My son and I of course spent the next 20 minutes laughing at her without her ever catching on.

Those were some mighty good times I had back then teaching my boy the joy of standing up for himself and laughing at the fools that think they rule him. And now twenty years later, with 2 advanced degrees, 2 tours of the sandbox, a well paying job, a wife that loves him and 2 kids that worship him he is still a high spirited young man and with what little free time his busy life leaves him he enjoys reading and posting on Free Republic!
