nope. i say thats a definate subject of the Boys rifle come doomsday.
speaking as someone with ADHD. the kid needs a slap, yes i know its fake and played up. but seriously needs a slap for even making something this annoying.

Pretty entertaining vid, tbh. Nice example of how you can make something that 'works' by being good/getting lucky with some very simple effects.
ETA: Wait, y'all don't like it. What I really ment to say was:
Ugh, someone should shoot that kid. He's making light of what real mental disorders and real drugs are like, which totally aren't funny. Very annoying. I now exhibit the quality of being annoyed, also.

I don't see many adults anxiously awaiting the next fredisode

Fucking brilliant! A consumate fool. Another in the long standing tradition of creating a foolish and maniacal (if annoying) character and being good enough at it to make people think you might actually be like that and wonder why. History is riddled with this archetype.
