Weird News

Re: They played "Kick The Austitc"

If it was a 20 minute flight, maybe they should have drove instead. Sounds like the crew did their best by putting two of them together, was likely a crowded flight. It's kinda unreasonable to expect the world to just know and be able to always accommodate you so your child doesn't have a meltdown.
 
I've been noticing a trend around here where people have been making threads like, "lol, the attraction sign worked," or "lol, someone else got trolled by a heartsweet," or "lol, kick the autistic IRL!" While I do hate talking about Chris because he's such a boring subject, it seems like a lot of these threads are just linking to a news article about something strange. So from now on, if you see something funny or weird or something Chris would be affected by, post it here. I'll be merging about four other threads with this thread.

Oh, and if you see another thread that would fit into this category, go ahead and report it here or PM me or something.
 
To be honest, I've only interacted on a minimal level with the mentally disabled. Back when I worked at a fast food chain, we'd have a little girl come in with her mother every once in a while and the daughter would tend to have a mini meltdown by the register. Aside from that, and one pretty negative experience with a girl with down's syndrome, I've never really seen an autistic meltdown.

Watching this gave me somewhat of an idea what it must have been like on the plane before takeoff. I don't think the mother would have been raising her voice as loudly as the man in this video does, but I can still see a disturbance and imagine other fliers being uncomfortable around such a scene. They understand there's something wrong and they don't feel in any position to ask for it to stop or be able to help.

Maybe it could've been handled differently than taking them off the plane, but at the same time I don't think her mother should be reacting this way. They were told beforehand that they could only get two of them together, and they've been with their daughter long enough to know she'd have a breakdown. Either they could've asked a fellow passenger to switch or like Bgheff said they could've taken another kind of transportation.

On an other, half related note, have you ever noticed how there are very few people with autism that are also handsome?

I think it's just that personal grooming gets put to the side more often. I'm not sure why that is, though.

The bodyguard to Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, Jay Z, Robert de Niro, Nelson Mandela, sir Paul McCartney and Bono, among other, died breaking into a house naked and under the influence of drugs. He was tasered by the police when several officers were unable to detain him following a violent fight with the home owner, and died as a result. Now I don't know about you guys but it doesn't get much weirder then that.

He was most famous for throwing a guy off the stage in 2010 at a Jay Z concert. Dude jumped on stage, then this giant bald guy throws him off stage. Hurls him ten feet through the air, breaking both his legs. Mr. Norman Oosterbroek, who also happens to be a countryman of mine, was supposed to be one of the most intimidating people on the face of this earth. He was pretty much Kratos from God of War.

I saw a news story about a man and woman who were arrested at a McD's when they couldn't get a refund on a $1 hashbrown. They tardraged and the woman threw it at an employee and was charged with assault and disorderly conduct. The man was charged with disorderly conduct.

It was a husband and wife, but when I saw it I thought :snorlax: and :tomgirl:

Sorry for not having a link. Don't Google " woman man arrested McDonald's" the results are scary :shock:
