IMAO Reader Challenge: Diagnose Kos
Considering Kos's usual paranoid delusions on his blog combined with this creepy appearance in a campaign ad, why don't we all grab a DSM-IV and try and diagnose exactly what mental defect he has. My off-hand guess is Irritiable Bowel Syndrome... but that's not covered by the DSM-IV. 26 Responses To "IMAO Reader Challenge: Diagnose Kos"
I think he has Species Identity Disorder. For some reason he keeps thinking he is human. Of course, I have never seen a Jack-Ass that is not stubborn. #2 - Posted by: Ron Rockstar on May 19, 2006 08:41 AMThat's easy. Kos suffers from accute Liberalism. That's a mental disorder you know. #4 - Posted by: fmragtops on May 19, 2006 08:45 AMSometimes I'm just to [sic] lazy to run my post through a spellcheck. #6 - Posted by: Frank J. on May 19, 2006 09:03 AMAl-Gorian Dysthmic Depression Disorder #7 - Posted by: Bilbo on May 19, 2006 09:11 AMIt seems that Kos is afflicted with the following from DSM-IV: I fear however that he is infected with liberalis psychosis, which is a terminal condition, demonstrated by a unwillingness to see things as they really are and a total disregard of any fact in opposition to the patients belief system. My recommendation: a year or two in a third world country, say the Philippines or Nicaragua. No contact with the civilized world and living on the economy, it'll either kill ya or cure ya. #8 - Posted by: seanmahair on May 19, 2006 09:40 AMI've atackled that question before in a post titled Kool-Aid, Spiked With With Vitriol. Kos and his followers have a very real disorder known as Folie à deux, meaning quite literally "a madness shared by two." Folie à deux is a rare psychiatric syndrome in which a symptom of psychosis (particularly a paranoid or delusional belief) is transmitted from one individual to another. (Related to the issue of shared delusions, there have also been occasional claims of shared visual hallucinations that are near-to-exact duplicates.) The same syndrome shared by more than one person may be called folie à trois, folie à quatre, folie à famille or even folie à plusieurs (madness of many). Various sub-classification of folie à deux have been proposed to describe how the delusional belief comes to be held by more than one person. Folie imposée is where a dominant person known as the 'primary', 'inducer' or 'principal' ... (Kos anyone?), initially forms a delusional belief during a psychotic episode and imposes it on another person or persons (known as the 'secondary', 'acceptor' or 'associate') with the assumption that the secondary person might not have become deluded if left to their own devices. Read the whole thing here. #9 - Posted by: Granddaddy Long Legs on May 19, 2006 09:46 AMMy diagnosis: I dunno, maybe he's just a little weenie. #10 - Posted by: ZK on May 19, 2006 09:49 AMMy professional diagnosis is that he suffers from one of the most severe cases of cranial-rectal inversion I have ever seen in almost 30 years of being an Evil Doctor. Have an Evil day #11 - Posted by: DrEvil on May 19, 2006 09:52 AMI've never met him, but I suspect he lacks any sort of a personality, so it can't be a personality disorder #12 - Posted by: greg zywicki on May 19, 2006 09:58 AMIntermittent Explosive Disorder (IED). Which, coincidentally, is also the acronym for something used by his "heroic freedom fighters". #13 - Posted by: Master Shake on May 19, 2006 11:08 AMCan we use DSM-I or DSM-II? They include homosexuality as a mental disorder . . . #14 - Posted by: blue square on May 19, 2006 11:43 AMAnyone checkout Allah's remix? It's hilarious. You know it's a quality ad when it plays out like a mentos commecial. #15 - Posted by: Bob in Feenicks on May 19, 2006 12:05 PMCranial-rectal inversion. It's quite common among liberals. It keeps them from looking at the real world. #16 - Posted by: Wolfman Dan on May 19, 2006 12:39 PMThis is an easy one. Notice the monkey eyes? That indicates a monkey brain located a couple inches behind. The cure? A punch in the face of course! Are you guys OK with brass knuckles? Of course this one wasn't listed in the DSM-IV, but all those shrink types are nuts anyway. #17 - Posted by: mudshark on May 19, 2006 12:56 PMPlease, just for fun, troll this! http://civilliberty.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?zi=1/XJ&sdn=civilliberty&zu=http%3A%2F%2Fmajikthise.typepad.com%2F #18 - Posted by: Jeromey on May 19, 2006 02:33 PMHis disease is that he's a commie. The only cure is fire. lots of fire. #19 - Posted by: Exile on May 19, 2006 02:36 PMKos does not suffer from a disease, he IS the disease. #20 - Posted by: Archangel on May 19, 2006 03:14 PMHemmorhoids! #21 - Posted by: Writer on May 19, 2006 03:15 PMI think he was paralyzed in a muff-diving accident, trying to duplicate the even that sparked Charles Krauthammer into greatness. Wait... I meant diving. #22 - Posted by: Laurence Simon on May 19, 2006 04:43 PM>Hemmorhoids! Haemorroids *and* cranial-rectum inversion. And ADHD. #23 - Posted by: Francesco Poli on May 19, 2006 07:03 PMIt's simple. It's the ol' "I hate my life. I ain't smart enough to figure out how to straighten it out. Would you like some cheese with that whine..." Crap that plagues this type of website. Kinda sad, really... Picture the cartoon of the School for the Gifted with the kid with a school book under his arm, pushing for all he's worth on the front door that has a large pull sign on it... #24 - Posted by: Strnj1 on May 19, 2006 07:20 PMHe has an illness that sounds like it's related to the recto-cranial inversion, but it's really quite different: cerebro-fecalitis (i.e. you-know-what for brains) #25 - Posted by: The Unknown Professor on May 19, 2006 08:40 PMHemmorhoids!? Aren't those what gays call speed bumps? #26 - Posted by: captamerica on May 22, 2006 08:34 AMPost a comment
