Everyone will need to cheer up after these f***********g clown car debates
my first world pet peeve of the day
You know when you have to enter your credit card information on web forms ? It's always fun when you think you did it exactly correct, and the form rejects your entries for some really obscure reason. Computers are OCD to the max, for sure.
sociopath or psychopath, which term do you prefer ?
From what I've read, shrinks are saying the terms are the same, but hey, I'm ready to be educated.
Totally OT but I refuse to watch the clown car debates, not happening, nope, no way, I don't need to get depressed and angry tonight.

How to Tell a Sociopath from a Psychopath
very last bump nt
When was the last time you had a really good cleansing cry ?
The kind where you feel so much better afterwards ? Two days ago, I had mine. It felt so good, like taking a nice long tub bath.
I call it "under the radar racism" or unconscious racism or partially-conscious racism
They are all bad. Some of these white people are just totally clueless.
What is a sociopath ?
http://www.enkivillage.com/what-is-a-sociopath.htmlThis article is simply an introduction to the subject.
If you are wondering what is sociopath, then the answer is complicated as this is actually an incredibly complex personality disorder. The condition is hard to diagnose due to the wide range of maladaptive behavior sociopaths display. Instead of being a single trait, sociopathy is a syndrome, a whole cluster of symptoms related to each other. A certain number of these symptoms must be present for a person to be diagnosed as a sociopath.
What is a sociopath? As an essential step to understand sociopath, getting to know the definition is necessary. Sociopaths are people who have antisocial personality disorder and demonstrate a pattern of disregard that is pervasive, particularly in terms of the feelings and rights of others.
Part 1: What is a Sociopath ?
Most people consider sociopaths to be criminals, but while it is possible, this is not a requirement for a diagnosis as having antisocial personality disorder. Instead, the patient must show a specific set of behaviors consistently (both in set circumstances and over time) and be over 18.
sincere compliment
Hi Skinner, EarlG and Elad,
I'm sure you've seen a few of my gripes. That's not what this is all about.
You guys have an awesome website. I love this place, as do many other DU'ers. Thank you for putting up with tons of BS over the years. I know people are constantly complaining about subject XYZ, but just know, some of us really do appreciate the hard work.
This is totally sincere. So... let in soak in for a while. Thanks.
Steve
