I need help.
My daughter who is 8 years old is most likely ADHD but also seems to suffer from depression lack of being able to make and retain friends and is super brilliant with a very high IQ she is reading at a high school level. She doesn't have any speech issues and developmentally is right on target. Its been suggested that she may be spectrum like me but I'm not sure if her other problems are due to the ADHD or if she could have aspergers and just seems like she has ADHD.... I thought being spectrum myself I would have more insight but I feel clueless she is nothing like my HFASD son. Also she is only slightly like how I was at that age. Any help would be appreciated.

Fan Opinion/vent:
If your going to get pregnant young, mature the fuck up, instead of posting in Facebook 24/7 I can't do this its to hard.
If your boyfriends going to step up to the plate to play dad since you dont know who the father is then congratulations­ to you, but if he's gonna sit on his arse all day smoking weed and bludging off centrelink, then fuck don't expect to get your own place, have nice things or a good family life, stop complaining about him doing that. Male him get a job to support you or get rid of his sorry arse.
(and to those who will bash me for this I font give two fucks, as my fiance sat on his arse playing Xbox till I left him. Now I drive a $27 thousand suv live a in a big beautiful house and have the best of everything and were only 18 &19 looking at buying our own house this year.

Brant Hansen can get lost anywhere & Producer Sherri is late for everything, no matter what! What is your less than impressive super power? (Something that you are really good at, but it would be hard to fight crime with.)

Teacher Question: What if you are the student teacher and need to get a gift for your cooperating teacher? Any ideas for a veteran teacher who has seen and probably has it all?

Okay question for people who would hopefully find this interesting. I really want your input on this. A chimp has an average IQ of 65. A normal person has an Iq of 100. So I you take an intelligent person with an IQ of 120 and they have intercourse with someone who has an IQ of 80 is it considered beastiality? If any other smart people, who I didn't tag, wants to throw in their 2 cents please feel free

Woke up thinking about my sixth grade social studies/language arts teacher...the woman scare me to death. But she had says that have stuck with me throughout life...she always said "close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades". I really never put a lot of thought to it but I suppose she was a pretty smart woman...I just never looked past the woman that was screaming at somebody all the time. Oh..."here's a quarter...call someone who cares" wow I guess she did stick to me.

my son TJ is in NY for the weekend for his math competition and will be looking at one of his college picks RIT, i cant help but hope he thinks MIT will be a better choice. This mommy cant imagine him moving that far. he will be 15 on the 10th and is planning for his future while alot of other kids his age are only planing their weekends. no matter where he goes he will do amazing things. im just hoping he does them close to home.

Another thought, thank you for head bashing and head hunting tonight. Thank you for more violence and less dancing. I'd like to thank all the scumbags that made the show entertaining.

Let's face it, the pit is over half the entertainment of the live show. Thank you to the colossal guy who punched me in the face, I literally barely felt it. I've been hit by girls, I've dated, and it hurt more. Thanks to the douche that attacked the blind kid, that shit was gnar; so heartless. Thank you Harm's Way, for keeping that pit gnar almost your whole set, that's not easy in Cali; we have a lot of faggots.

Thank you to the faggots for not coming to this fucking show tonight, except for that one hipster-rockabilly-scene-James-From-Harm's-Way-cock-obsessed-creepy-as-fuck-goth-make-up-wearing-whore.

As with no doubt everyone else i am writing a set that involves thatcher. Although unlike other vastly more talented comics, my experiance of writing sets is limited. Any tips on starting a set when the start has no jokes in?

Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100.

If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:
The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7..
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.

So, that's what they decided to do..

The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner offered "Since you are all such good customers, I'm will reduce the charge of your daily beer by $20". Drinks for the ten men would now cost just $80.

The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes. So the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his fair share?

They realized that $20 divided by 6 is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer.

So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by a higher percentage the poorer he was, to follow the principle of the tax system they had been using, and he proceeded to work out the amounts he suggested that each should now pay.

And so the fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% saving).
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% saving).
The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28% saving).
The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% saving).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% saving).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% saving).

Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But, once outside the bar, the men began to compare their savings.

"I only got a dollar out of the $20," declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man,"but he got $10!"

"Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man. "I only saved a dollar too. It's unfair that he got ten times more benefit than me!"

"That's true!" shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $10 back, when I got only $2? The wealthy get all the breaks!"

"Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison, "we didn't get anything at all. This new tax system exploits the poor!"

The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.

The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had their beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!

And that is how our tax system works. The people who already pay the highest taxes will naturally get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas, where the atmosphere is friendlier.
