ADD: It isn't a disorder.

Anyone who thinks that ADD is an actual disorder is a crock full of you-know-what. ADD is just a cover-up for something called "Having Human Tendencies," or HHT, as I call it. HHT causes you to be non-robotic in the sense of finding tirelessly droning voices to be dull, people actually talking their heads off at 70+ wmp as annoying, and any general need to do anything other than work on a high quality of life is seen as daunting or plain-old irritating.

Why do we have these tendencies? Simple. Mankind are, at the base of things, still animals. We are still completely biological, so children will continue to prefer chasing butterflies to sitting in a classroom while adults will prefer talking with a friend to cold calling. We've taken the "Somebody's gotta do it" mindframe to a level it was never intended--and a level that is highly troubling to much of the nation. And why the hell are we medicating people for wanting to enjoy life rather than trudge along through the 6-2 schoolday so they can grow up to trudge through a 9-5 workday on the same schedule, but no naps, and no summer vacation? It's inhumane, really.

Many people despise their 9-5 jobs, and I know scant few children who enjoy school. Actually can't name a single one of either group that enjoys the punishment they undergo for breathing. Why must we fit into this mold? And what about the people who are suited for the jobs and whatnot that are stated, and yet can't achieve the position before Joe Schluck gets there? Are those people doomed to work 3rd shift (10pm-6/7am)? Don't they have a choice? Don't any of us?

The worst part, in my opinion, is that if someone walks up to you on the street and forces you to A) have sex with them, B) give them your money, or C) die at gun/knifepoint, they can be jailed. In fact, if anyone walks up to you and tries to force you to do ANYTHING, it can be viewed as harassment if you find it unpleasant. So here's my leaving question: If someone walks up to you and demands you continue living and breathing, can that person be sued? I hope so. Freedom of speech is great, but some people should just shut their freaking mouths.
