With medication it can be hidden very well. My co-workers used to call me ret*d and things like that, when I got fed up with their BS, I flat out told them I have paranoid schizophrenia. They were shocked because I didn't show many symptoms.

Necroing means reviving an old thread. This one had died three months ago, which isn't so bad, but I've seen people posting on year old threads too.

Bring back to life a dead thread, huh? That sounds promising. I have done other things though. I walk on water; I have been transfigured. I multiply loaves and fishes. I could go on, but I shan't.
Lo, I have never attempted.
