Bloggers May Officially Be Nuts
Whether the latest edition of the American ‘Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders’ actually proves that we are three times madder today than we were in 1952 is open to conjecture – certainly the manual is three times thicker than it was in its first 1952 edition.
The 2012 edition looks to break all records. It is planning to include ‘Intermittent Explosive Disorder’ which is the inability to control violent impulses and also ‘Internet Addiction’.
Since most Bloggers suffer from both afflictions, we can expect to be the object of study by a wide range of academics and clinicians excited by the new horizons for research (and research grants) opened up by this inclusion.
The pharmaceutical companies will be champing at the bit to develop a drug to cure our affliction – will there be ‘Biagra’ for those who blog is beginning to flag?
Will the government be looking towards the new classifications and a helpful psychiatrist to enable them to section Bloggers who are being particularly annoying?

Thank goodness I have never been accused of having high intelligence! Guile and low cunning have brought me safely through my 70 years on this particular planet.

You’d be outside the sanatorium, queuing up for a job interview to become the next Nurse Rached. I’d be there rolling back and forward laughing away, waiting for the ball game to appear on Telly as you sit behind the perspex screen, tapping away on your computer pretending to work, all the while you’re Country Club blogging and schmoozing away like the most innocent Martyr the world has ever seen.
Bet you’d love to see this lunatic mother f**ker locked up and thrown out of the blogosphere.

P.s. Where’d you find that picture of Obo? I’d like to use it at my place some time.
Cheerio.

OOH, like the subtle name change. I like it a lot.
Reflects your inner personality, I thought John……

And if John D appeared as ‘Paul Sheldon’ in Misery, perhaps Anna could be the Annie Wilkes character.
