These 2 lads are trying to watch a video of someone with Tourettes.

daja vu.......

Just like @Sparky and @ian29gte looking in the engine bay of my car.....

[Sparky]

Bottom line, your engine's the wrong shape.

Have to say that, at first, I was somewhat offended by this video. Still, I kept watching out of fascination. And, while I can't be sure that these two blokes actually have Tourette's Syndrome or are merely convincingly capable of mimicking it, it made me, in a perverse sort of way, more understanding of what it must be like to be afflicted with this malady...which, as near as I can tell, is completely involuntary...including the colourful language.

"Tourette syndrome starts in childhood.

It involves uncontrollable repetitive movements or unwanted sounds (tics), such as repeatedly blinking the eyes, shrugging shoulders, or blurting out offensive words."

[Sparky]

It's real; the guy on the right is leveraging his condition and becoming quite famous over here.

[Chillidoggy]

I feel I should point out that neither Sparky or I have Tourettes.

Abusive language, pointing, and laughing whilst looking at V8's is normal behaviour for us.

[andydclements]

Well there we have it.

Rather like the idea of an infinite number of monkey, infinite number of typewriters etc, if you wait long enough, eventually Sparky is described as "Normal"

[Barrykearley]

I find it hard to believe anyone that own an esprit can be described as normal ? Special yes - normal I'm just not so sure about

Sorry to have to pull you up Andy, but I did say 'normal' behaviour, the definition of which is below:-

 

adjective: normal

1. 1.

   conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected.

The guy on the right is (As Sparky says) quite famous right now and self posts these video's. There is nothing offensive meant. He does these so people understand his and his friends conditions more. If you listen, at the end he says "This is what happens when 2 people with Tourettes watch a video of some one with Tourettes. And I for one learnt something because I didn't realise that is what can happen. He's also trying to ensure people don't get offended about him and others with it and actually seems to have an amazing self depreciating sense of humour. Sort of like the lady below who is one of my favourite comedians:

Thanks, all, for the additional information. While I knew of the syndrome's existence, I had never "seen it in action," as it were. Quite educational to say the least.

[eeyoreish]

I used to live in Bolton, where this is normal behaviour. People there don't understand why this is funny...

The DOTS move,  its messing with my eyes, they hurt, is this some kind of test for pyshcopaths

Driving along a picturesque road in Austria with a group of Lotus owners on our recent Euro trip we were forced to a halt whilst the locals decided to start a reproduction process 

Thank god the Elise doesn't have a wide bore exhaust 

[andydclements]

I think they realised the Elise is fuel injected and became jealous.

I'd always heard that bovines were aroused by the colour orange, but until now I had no proof.
