A disorder related to hyperactivity and distraction.

I have it, and I know I'm not an expert. I'm just saying, I speak from experience when I say it's freaking hard to get one thing done all at once. You usually get distracted by something else, and then eventually come back to that first task.
This doesn't mean you can't get something done, it just means that work typically takes a lot longer because you're inclined to go look something up or do something RIGHT that second. Hell, I'm procrastinating right now making this definition when I'm supposed to be doing biology homework.

I shouldn't even have to acknowledge these people, but to everyone who thinks that all people with ADHD are stupid are seriously wrong. Most people with ADHD are gifted.
Sometimes when you go out to night parties after your meds have worn off, you act hyper without noticing it. But it's fun hyper, not annoying hyper. At least that's what my friends tell me ;)
Anyway, sometimes the next day when you're on your meds again, you just remember glimpses of the previous night because everything was a big distracting, stimulating blur.
Oh, "ADHD". my example has to include the word apparently.

ADHD is a very real disorder that stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. People with this disorder tend to have difficulty focusing on a certain task and sitting still.

Don't mistake them for being dumb though, in fact it's quite the opposite. Their thoughts tend to wander off, but it allows them to have an easier grasp at understanding a topic at different angles and allows them to question it deeper. Their thoughts just sometimes wander a bit TOO far off, giving their own little world.

They can definitely do the task at hand, they understand it perfectly, they just tend to get distracted.

Think of it this way. A normal person's mind is a dimly lit room, with a single flashing light telling them where to go. People with ADHD, however, have a mind filled with flashing lights, all telling them that each and every one of them are important. The person with ADHD can see the brightest light, and know that it's the one they must go to, but it's hard to tell with all the flashing beams because they all collide with the main one. Sometimes they think that they're following the right light, but realize later that they are off task and that they must get to the one that shines the brightest.
There was a whole other draft where both the definition and the examples were about 1000 words over the limit because every thing i said was me rambling about adhd and me constantly adding things to the stuff already written because my brain thought of it and then said to do it so i did it

it does that constantly

there's a mistake in the last sentence of the second paragraph because i went to write something else before finishing it before i forgot the idea completely and then came back to finish it with new ideas in mind

i just thought 10 things in the past 5 seconds and i forgot all of them because i decided that i was gonna write "i just thought of 10 things in the past 5 seconds."

Adhd! :)

Something you should be looking up on Wikipedia or a medical website, not urban dictionary.
adhd by That guy d September 3, 2016
A mental disorder that is poorly understood by many. Contrary to popular belief, people with adhd aren't retarded. They just don't learn like most other people do. This, in turn, pisses off the faculty at school, and they make everyone around you aware of of your disorder, and since your non adhd classmates don't understand your disorder either, you'll be labeled as different, guaranteeing that you'll be made fun of multiple times. Despite this, adhd people tend to be more intelligent than those who do well in public schools. They don't pay attention in class because guess what stupid teachers? Your class is useless to them and boring as shit, not because they suck at learning. Most kids with adhd are highly creative. After the hell they endure at school, they usually go on to be successful at life and never look back. Famous examples of these people: Albert Einstein, Jim carrey, Pete rose (baseball legend), will smith, Michael phelps (Olympic gold medalist swimmer), robin Williams (RIP), Walt Disney, and way too many people to list have adhd and go on to do incredible things.
Teacher at school: WHAT?!?! Your son has ADHD?!?! Oh, we can help him.

Teacher in class: ...and that's why 5,552X is parallel with 9,467Y. (Half the class is asleep) hey...uh... Kid with adhd! Solve the next problem! What is 3,758Y equivalent to?

Student with adhd: uh...I... I honestly don't know, mrs. Richards.

Teacher: are you that stupid?! We went over this yesterday! Twice! You should be paying attention like everyone else is! (Even though no one actually is) do this 10 page packet so I don't have to fail you! *whole class laughs at him*

Kid with adhd in 20 years: I love living in Hawaii! I'm so glad that people outside of school appreciated my creativity! Now I can rest easy knowing I found the cure for cancer!

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
