Coffee with Claire for January 22, 2012

A bit late today, but hopefully a good show. I've included the first "Geology Minute," this one dedicated to William "Strata" Smith, the father of English geology. And of course I offer up a couple of startlingly dim bulbs. Incidentally, I didn't have time to fully respond to all of the points of one of our dim bulb candidates, but that should allow you plenty of opportunity for your own comic responses.

WTF IS WRONG WITH VENOMFANGX ???

[WildwoodClaire1]

@zecle I'm not a psychiatrist, so anything I suggest would be idle speculation.

I made a reply video but I called you "RHYMEMAIDEN1" twice. Oops!. Time warp!

[WildwoodClaire1]

@Desertphile Just call me Claire. :)

VFX says atheists are "evil" for denying his undetectable genocidal god. This from a 26-year-old still living off his rich daddy, and who literally stole some $4500 in funding from dying children (and never owned up to his theft).

Priceless.

@Brascofarian He's the posterboy for Narcissistic Personality Disorder. And people with NPD are among the most insufferable on the planet.

"You can have faith that life arose out of nothing" Yes you can, if you read the Bible.

@BigDwarren i remember this obsessive behavior on one of my asperger friends. she is not totally "normal" yet.

Claire, I am so glad I came across your channel. I look forward to your new vids and am going to backtrack and watch all your older ones in order.

Thank you for the effort you and the Fat Assed Cats put into these timely, informative and highly entertaining videos.

@zecle My studies of the disorder has some funny outcomes for the inflicted. A large majority of them fall head first into religion. Maybe someone in the past had this disorder and started out all the religious fairy tales.

[BigDwarren]

@zecle "Intense preoccupation with a narrow subject, one-sided verbosity, restricted prosody", explains it all. He is smart, just about a stupid subject. He can not see the other side because of his disorder.

@WildwoodClaire1 I think he's nothing more than a run of the mill sociopath.

[zecle]

@BigDwarren therefore he should have been infinitely more intelligent than that...

Asperger syndrome is distinguished by a pattern of symptoms. It is characterized by qualitative impairment in social interaction, by stereotyped and restricted patterns of behavior, activities and interests, and by no clinically significant delay in cognitive development or general delay in language. "Intense preoccupation with a narrow subject, one-sided verbosity, restricted prosody, and physical clumsiness are typical of the condition, but are not required for diagnosis".

[BigDwarren]

@zecle I think I heard his parents say he has Asperger's syndrome.
