I have trouble believing that these individuals have 'tourettes syndrome' in fact, I have trouble believing that such a 'syndrome' is even legitimately existant

tourette's syndrome is not necessarily screaming profanities at random. in fact i think that is only one possible variance of this syndrome.
it usually involves unpredictable behavior in the form of nervous tics. some people twitch, some people make odd grunts and other sounds.

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.

I knew a guy with Tourettes, but it manifested as a weird cough twitch thing. It was hell during college trying to take a test in a lecture hall with him around.

CALLES–
A French doctor, Jean Marc Gaspard Itard, reported the first case of Tourette syndrome in 1825,[77] describing Marquise de Dampierre, an important woman of nobility in her time.[12] Jean-Martin Charcot, an influential French physician, assigned his resident Georges Albert Édouard Brutus Gilles de la Tourette, a French physician and neurologist, to study patients at the Salpêtrière Hospital, with the goal of defining an illness distinct from hysteria and from chorea.
