>people (typically athletes) who get "flustrated" -- evidently the condition affects the ability to speak sensibly as well.
You reminded me of one that I'd put back into the nether reaches of my mind. I work with a guy who can't seem to use words right. Some years ago, he was reloading his printer with fan-fold paper. Gosh this seems ANCIENT!!!. Anyway, the box of paper he'd gotten from supplies had the holes on the edges to go through the pinfeed, but did not have the perforations to tear off the strips. He got it loaded into his machine, looked down, and said, "I can't use this, it isn't prohylacted right!"
