"Natural Flavor" ingredient exposed?

So what are you gaining by pointing out all my grammar mistakes when I am openly admitting I am unable to properly communicate to others in a way that presents me as intelligent because I am in fact not?

You are making claims. I am asking you to clarify and explain claims. You wanted debate. You can't have debate without being able to communicate and dissect. It's what it is all about.

But I didn't want debate as much as I just wanted a pool of great ideas about the article I posted. No one is doing that. We went from the article, to how I'm an idiot for believing the article, to how I'm an idiot, to how I am a learning disabled retard, and now to "why is this thread even in existent".

So you wanted to post something with no evidence and for everyone to just post up "thank you"?

1. You are the only person who called yourself names. No one here called you stupid, retarted, or even brought up any learning disabilities or issues you might have. You brought them up yourself.

2. You want people to provide their "opinion" (based in science or emotion) and then just shut up? We can say what we think and then not discuss it further? That is never going to happen.

I'm thinking you have a skewed worldview. Again, this is an observation from someone who works with people with learning disabilities and special needs and went to school for Psychology.

Not being able to see or understand logic is a sign of being on the spectrum (Autism). ADHD is specifically focus and memory (that generally has a high correlation to dyslexia, but I'm not seeing that here). I'm not saying you have Autism, but I am saying you're misunderstanding your diagnosis and seem to be applying it to things it isn't connected to. Kind of like if someone with Diabetes said, "Well, I can't read because of my Diabetes." Unless that person happens to be blind (where, in that case, they can learn Braille), there is no causation between the two things. Having ADHD does not mean you don't understand logic. You don't understand logic, and you also happen to have ADHD.

I urge you to stop responding, go back through and objectively (as best you can) read every post. No one has said the words "idiot" or "retard' (which is, frankly, offensive when used in a derogatory manner, which YOU and no one else did).

You are my new favorite person!!

ADHD doesn't typically make you unable to figure out if something is true or not.



Not hating, but have you been tested for Aspbergers(spelling)? Cause you act more along the lines of having that.

Hey, I know a guy with aspergers syndrome, and he is very argumentative and exhibits other symptoms similar to ED. That actually makes much more sense than autism.

Yes, ADHD has nothing to do with differentiating fact from fiction. My hubby and son both have ADHD. I have ADD. (no "H" so I don't get crazy hyper like they do.) In fact many of the people I have known with ADHD are highly intelligent and excellent researchers. (not all of them though) It is also worth noting that ADHD is often over-diagnosed or mis-diagnosed.

Yes last year and they came back with ADHD-C. If I have Autism, I am considered "really high functioning". Some debate that ADHD is on the spectrum. I don't know, I just know that I am not like my peers.

It's possible.


The advice I offer is this:

most of the people on this site are nice. We're on these boards to help people, stop misinformation, and for the most part be supportive.
Like you said, you're learning new things.
One of the best things I've ever learned is "pay attention and keep your mouth shut".
Asking questions is fine, but if you're new, don't argue. Listen to people with more experience.

You ever think I feel stupid, retarded, or disabled? Here I am 30 years old and people younger than me are running cognitive circles around me. Do you have any idea how humbling that is to think you know something then find out that you don't know jack? I seriously thought I was starting an intellectual conversation and I would be able to learn something today. Those were my true intentions. I am sorry I can't think like you. I would be lying if I told you that I can think like you and I'm just not doing it.

Once again, you are the only one calling yourself names. No one else has assigned those things to you. Some people did not agree with the article and/or your belief in it. That was it.

I'm sorry you feel that way about yourself, but you can't expect an entire forum to walk on eggshells regarding your self esteem. We are also entitled to our opinions, our research, and our ability to make logical conclusions. If you would spend some time reading instead of looking for fights in statements of disagreement, you might have learned something.

And as far as people younger than you "running cognitive circles" around who - so what? Some people are better at some things than other people. I'm pretty smart, but there are a lot of people on this forum who are smarter than me and that's ok. I'm a good cook, but I'm sure Gordon Ramsey is better. That's fine. It doesn't make me feel stupid or less of a person because someone else can achieve more than I can in certain areas.

When you are asking for opinions and advice on an internet forum, you have to accept and be ok with the idea that other people are smarter, have done more research, and might have different answers or opinions than you. Otherwise, what's the point? (besides argument)

I am not "EccentricDad" because it was a cool name. The more you get to know just how "Eccentric" I am, the more it will make sense......

A troll is a person who acts a certain way because they know it will get someone to be angry or because they want to frustrate people with information that is misinformation. What do you call a person oblivious of this but does the same thing just being themselves?

I call it unintentional trolling. But like I said earlier. Go back and read through your thread and try to remain objective to some of the responses. You might still gain the knowledge that you were looking for.

you seem to be a victim more than anything. If you havnt sought therapy, you might consider it. It cant be fun going through life with such a "poor me" attitude. You arent as special as you think. Most people have issues but parading them is not a healthy way to deal with them.

Funny you post this picture because my wife is making me watch the documentary this guy is in. While it's fascinating to listen to someone else's perspective about how our ancestors did the fine cuts and made these huge pyramids, I think we are just insulting the intelligence of our ancestors by saying they were too stupid to figure out these things on their own and they needed aliens to help them. But quite ironic you are posting this right now and we are in the middle of watching it at the moment.

You even argue Ancient Aliens???? its like the best documentary ever! This guy was the most entertaining part however.

And it wasn't that they were too stupid to figure things out its that *kitten* was so advanced we couldn't even do half the Sh**t they did back then, seriously the arrogance astounds in all your posts.Of course you'd argue even the most intellegent of documentaries, you have a complete disdain for facts.
