Maybe this is why I'm not keen on sprouts



Liz has been a fussy eater all her life. Now experts say people like her may actually have a little-known eating disorder

Avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), was only recognised in 2013


There are lots of other possibilities here because I'm sure I have Avoidant restrictive media intake disorder (ARMID). Luckily there is no cure.

Not long now before some bright spark suggests that wrongthink is not only deplorable, not only worthy of deprogramming, but actually a little known cognitive disorder.

Wrong-headed Anti-Consensus Syndrome (WHACS) perhaps?

More like an unknown eating disorder until it was invented by an idle psychologist with an eye to grants and their pension . . .

What about talking bollocks disorder? Voting socialist disorder? Eating peas with honey disorder? Enjoying Dickens disorder.

There are more disorders on heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

And misquoting Shakespeare disorder.

DJ - that's too close to a possible reality for my liking. It's probably lurking somewhere already.

Jannie - yes, that's what they do. Then some kind of rigged demonstration used as the basis of a book and away they go.

dearieme - eating peas with honey sounds bad, but all the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely payers.
