Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

I'd trade my ADHD for being normal every day of the week. It's even worse when people tell you about how they have ADHD because they are just annoying. And i sit there thinking: yeah i know what you mean, sometimes i don't take my ADHD meds, because i have ADHD, and then i don't answer text messages or pay bills for a few month, lol so random and fun.
Recognizing your illness and doing what you need to do, especially self-care, is healthy and admirable. Wishing you all the best.
Hearing people whine is worse than having the condition?
Hearing people dismiss your condition is pretty fucking frustrating. Idk about worse but it is highly irritating.
Sure, acknowledged. But HAVING the condition in the first place has to be a greater issue, to me obviously.
And I totally agree with that. If I had to pick only one to fix it would be the condition, no contest.
No, they're just saying it's really annoying when people attribute an ordinary behavior to a mental disorder that you really struggle with.
"it's even worse"
He's not saying hearing stuff like that is worse than having adhd, he's saying that he feels even worse than normal when hearing that. Yes it's phrased ambiguously, but you're seemingly interpreting it as wrong as you can so you can feel superior
Why are you assuming my motives? You have zero evidence based on the words.
I questioned the specific words they used. That's all. Semantics matter.
Having a condition is always worse than hearing people chirp.
Then you need to work on your reading comprehension. With all due respect....
Yeah I think they just meant the turn of phrase to be: "worse still" or "and on top of that".
PS:
I'm still not making sense probably.
I think they meant it like
Disorder is bad but the combination of disorder PLUS people chirping is even worse.
E.g., it's bad enough I smashed my foot dropping a brick on it but on top of that I stubbed my toe, too.
Smashing my food is bad but even worse is [also] subbing my toe [on top of the already smashed foot]
