It was very sad, I thoughtBut that 8 year-old was so much sadder than John- when his dad was talking about how he finds it hard when his son asks him to kill him.. aaargh. I had a vague feeling that maybe there are loads of really kind-hearted women out there who are this morniing rushing to take John under their wing. Maybe not though.

it was horriblethat poor little kid. it was the bit when he said "i'm going to be like this for ever and ever until i die" that was particularly distressing. John seemed like a nice but very lonely bloke, but it was great the way he was laughing at it, like when he was with his mate and called him a fat cunt and started laughing.

wouldn't want John in my passenger seat ...... he was dangerous. messing with the rear view mirror, honking the horn. (except that I don't drive.)

did you noticehe ended up strapping his arm into the seatbelt to stop it doing that? I liked the way he said people waved when he honked. he did seem to be able to laugh about a lot of his outbursts

liked that his nickname was fuck off john ...... but yeah, that young chap was tragic. he seemed an old little soul for an 8 year old. I'm sure he'd has a harder time from the kids than he was letting on.

they kept saying howTourettes sufferers were often seen as just being badly behaved. Well, I hope that maybe now people will view my bad behaviour as the syndrome, and see me in a more sensitive light. FUCK
