You Down With O.C.D.? Yeah You Know Me!

Christmas holidays are here. A great time to go and watch Tron. So I check the listings and see a 10.30 showing. I think great not many people but then I notice it's subtitled & Audio Described!!
Subtitled? What's the point with that? Why should everyday people have to sit with subtitles along the bottom. Hollyoaks on a Sunday morning is bad enough.
Audio Described  is another silly thing. Imagine sat watching Saw 3D with a guy in your earphones telling you - "the sound of the blade ripping into the skull as sally screams"....."AHHHHHHH"
Leave all that till it's released on DVD for the disabled. They don't need 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround sound & they cant see in 1D let only 3D!!! So why do they give them special showings on the imax?
The Deaf and Blind seem to get a lot more advantages than other disabled people which i find unfair. People with Epilepsy are the latest craze for do-gooders but most people who have it, have no problems with flashing lights.
How long before OCD sufferers start getting special treatment? OCD meaning "Obsessive Compulsive Disorder" NOT  "obsessive cullen disorder" that's mad girls obsessed with that annoying prick from Twilight, Edward Cullen.
 I can already see it..

  • Asda open the first OCD only supermarket with fellow OCD sufferers employed to go round and straighten the goods on the selves. The asda price check would do well! It will be checked at least 5 times per hour so they couldn't ever be beaten on price.
  • OCD Driving Lessons. Not sure if they would get past the... Mirror, signal, Maneuver etc....
  • Security Guard OCD training. No door or window would ever be left unlocked, they would be checked and double checked.
Lets be sensible about this, lets help the disabled but lets not go OTT


I couldn't resist the title. Taken from Naughty by Natures song O.P.P
