I’m worried about a friend. He has a habit of repeating a phrase or word many times a day for no apparent reason, unconsciously, and he cant seem to stop. Some of his phrases are quotes. I originally put his repeating of these down to attention seeking, but some he doesn’t know what they mean, where they come from, or why he can’t stop repeating them. He also does it when he’s on his own and unaware he is overheard. The comments aren’t addressed to anyone, they just come out anyway. The phrases are not appropriate or related to current conversation or events.
He answers direct questions with his nonsense phrases, even when it makes people angry, and even when the question is repeated several times. It upsets him greatly when he's told how annoying it is, he says he is just playing.
I’ve noticed he is worse when he’s upset or stressed.
My sister has suggested he may have Aspergers syndrome. My friend is 30 in March, wouldn't he have been diagnosed by now

how could God make man out of dust?
It is the argument you use against abiogenesis
Millers theory( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller-Urey_experiment ) is much more sensible than man coming from dust

to just simply not like the fact my partner points out hot chicks while we are out. I tell him because of my weight issue i wish he doesnt point them out. Instead he asks me what I think of them. He tells me im insecure and he will still point them out. By the way im 20 and he is 21. He also has to make the point "My friends NEVER get this problem with their girlfriends"

Do you think I am insecure?

HURRICANE KATRINA>>>WHY did you turn against your constitution and WE THE PEOPLE when you are not legally obligated to protect us . A national guardsmen made the comment, it was surreal and he couldn't believe it was happening in his own country. It was also extremely ILLEGAL by our constitution, and if it were my gun, I would not just being suing law enforcement down there, I would sue the national guard. (government) for violating my 2nd amendment rights.
Politics and government have replaced the patriotism in americans ?? and the constitution and we the people ???? Just want you to know what happened if you dont know, and question WHY it happened and also WHY are all our military being maimed, and more going in ? We dont have enough soldiers here to protect our borders, or the citizens now. THINK,,why would a president want that ?

Me & my gal gets along quite well, but the problem is i want more of her. I wana get kinda physical [ No Sex ].... i have given hints to her many times but she ignores & moreover she and i talks about sex etc... but she i guess not willing to get physical with me.... i dont wana do anything without her permission, so makingup and touching is ruled out 4 me.

As i am not able to stand my great GF not letting me gettin physical [ Touching etc.. ] i say to end the relationship.

My problem is what shall i tell her the reason? I cant tell her such a reason for ending it. (Doesnt sound good)

Please suggest what to say in a peacefull & nice way without getin much hurt.

NOTE: We people just kiss nothing more!! and yes she is not shy 4sure.
Talking with her anymore is no use - So this option is also ruled out

One of my bestfriends in school is always getting in trouble for his bad attitude to school. His parents are always called into see the principle and form teacher. He is a good kid I guess he just doesn't really like school n he finds it real difficult.
He always tries to impress older bad kids n he got caught stealing cigerettes for them in a seven eleven.
He told me he was in real big trouble n that i wouldnt understand,im alway gettin narked at by my parentals so i didnt think much of it.
i asked him to come sufing with me afer school last week but he said he was getting a home boot camp,when i asked he was real vague about what went on n now im curious,is it normal for parents to do this?
