Get the Tourette's mug.A world famous Tourettes sufferer who has his own website. He has been featured in an MTV commercial, quoted on Conan O'Brien and honoured by Marilyn Manson and his crew.
The guy who wrote the first definition here used to go by the name Suebee Stalker. He was a former Admin on the TG forums, and was banned from the site for attempting to erase the forums. He's just jealous that TG is more popular than he is.
