    You should really go read this thread on architect.com:

    http://www.archinect.com/forum/t…

    It begins: "Today, a coworker told me how his son was suspended from school for a week for a big outburst of profanity in his 3rd period Geometry class. He's in 10th grade.

    He said something like "F*ck this, it's like a snake! Sick of this God damn c*cksucking calculator crap. Crap! Crap! I hate it like a sick car. Sh*t! A damn HONDA! It's getting me!"
    He was also in a fighting stance, making horizontal chops with his left arm.

    So we talked about it over lunch, he actually had the write up form with him with all that written out. I couldn't help but laugh, I could tell he thought it was slightly funny but it's his son so he's not going ot laugh.
    But the son has claimed he had no control over what he said. It's never happened before.

    So have you ever known anyone with Tourettes? They're going to take him to counseling, but I'm just wondering if it's something your born with or something that develops over time."

    The whole thread is fantastic.
