I'm Not A Prick....It's A Medical Condition.

So it now seems road rage can be diagnosed as a condition known as intermittent explosive disorder, or IED.

According to ABC News: "Road rage, especially if it's frequent enough, is probably a part of IED, which is much more prevalent than people thought," said Dr. Emil Coccaro of the University of Chicago.

IED. What a crock of shit. Everything’s got to be a “disorder” now, don’t it?

Can’t anyone just be a plain old asshole anymore?

Well worry not, young disordered pottymouth, apparently patients with intermittent explosive disorders respond to treatment with antidepressants such as tricyclic antidepressants and serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs).

Ever get the idea the drug companies are making this shit up?
