To: Gargantua
We have a new development to report to the New England Journal of Medicine concerning the sad and deteriorating case of patient Gargantua. This is the first known reportable incident of a patient suffering a metastasis of the ad hominem distemper syndrome.

The disease is advancing rapidly and the patient is obviously deteriorating and coming to a crisis. The staff has collaborated and unanimously decided to name these new symptoms because the psychosis is so pronounced. We have concluded to call gargantua's newly developed psychotic eruption as the Captain Queeg Syndrome after the neurotic episode portrayed in the novel and film, The Caine Mutiny, in which the Humphrey Bogart character has a neurotic episode in front of his crew. In the scene Capt. Queeg turns his own ship upside down in a useless search for missing strawberries which we find out later he had known all along had been eaten by the mess boys. The poor soul was trying to live again a triumph of his youth to compensate for his manifest inadequacies. In the scene, he told his crew that he proved with scientific certainty that the strawberries had been stolen.

We now see the same syndrome replayed in the poor wretch, Gargantua. The patient behaves exactly like Capt. Queeg who measured out scoops of sand to prove that the strawberries had not been eaten in the regular mess but stolen. Now Gargantua boasts that he has, like Capt. Queeg, done "a little research" and, it is important to note the neurotic use of the word "see" followed by the self-congratulatory, "I knew that you were just cutting-and-pasting when you posted that huge vomitous fake article in reply to my annhialating your non-point. "

Obviously, the neuroses has spread to every cognitive region of the brain and the prognosis is guarded. Recommended treatment requires hospitalization and a 24-hour suicide watch as there is a reasonable fear that the patient might become a danger to himself or others.

Follow-up reports to be submitted as needed.

Respectfully submitted,

Nathan Bedford MD

Hey, did you see this?

It's an ABC News piece about KKK Founder, Nathan Bedford.

Is this guy a hero of yours? How positively revolting.

No wonder you have no shame or sense of honor. All makes sense now. "Buh-bye..."
