You only get a choice of three, but could be a simple b-day prezz!

Nice one Gandy.

I quite enjoyed "What Lies Beneath" so I opted for that.

I am afraid to say that I chose Dr Doolittle.  I'm sorry, but I'm a psychiatrist and reckon that it will help the paranoia sometimes felt whilst aloneonthe MeatHook waiting for others to join the server.  As you will no doubt be aware, Paranoia is an unfounded or exaggerated distrust of server ping times, sometimes reaching delusional proportions. Paranoid individuals constantly suspect the motives of server admins in particular and believe that certain individuals, or players in general, are "out to get them."  This is often most true when the last member of your team left standing (yep, Tut is asleep on the job again, lagging out quietly in the corner).  I remember that I felt like that on MeatHook the other night with all those frag-whores out there to get me.   The trouble is that I'm still not sure whether my session on MeatHook caused a permanent paranoid schizophrenia, delusional disorder (persecutory type), or paranoid personality disorder (PPD).  Peeps with paranoid schizophrenia and persecutory delusional disorder experience what is known as persecutory delusions: an irrational, yet unshakable, belief that someone is plotting against them - usually on a hostage rescue map.   Persecutory delusions in paranoid schizophrenia are bizarre, sometimes grandiose, and often accompanied by auditory hallucinations - sort of like the eagle cries in de_piranesi - I mean have you ever seen any eagles on piranesi?  Delusions experienced by individuals with delusional disorder are more plausible than those experienced by paranoid schizophrenics (no I'm sure he's in the sewers!), but I'm not sure that this will help you choose a DVD.  Non-PCS players with delusional disorder should fair better as they usually seem offbeat or quirky rather than mentally ill (hmmm, I just KNOW that there are other peeps out there suffering as well - You're NOT alone!!), and, as such, never have trouble choosing a DVD.  However the downside is that they wil probably get a visit from our resident Doctor Sheepy ("Check-up anyone", quote from The Cannonball Run) sometime real soon........(what do you mean you never read the rectal thermometer clause when you agreed to the MeatHook PCS Terms & Conditions?).

Persons with paranoid personality disorder tend to be self-centered, self-important, defensive, and emotionally distant, but it would be quite wrong of me to break a medical confidence here, wouldn't it JB.  Their paranoia manifests itself in constant suspicions rather than full-blown delusions and their disorder often impedes social and personal interraction with other CS devotees, particularly those who kill him whilst he is a CT standing in his own spawn on cs_italy. (We know who you are).

PCS-withdrawal paranoia is also rife, with potential causal factors may be power cuts, BT, dark clowns, genetically engineered TK-ing Clan mates, jammed rifle mechanisms, grenade spamming, neurological abnormalities (that's too obvious so I won't say a thing), changes in brain chemistry (we've been playing de_nuke too long again), and stress (just what are those noobs doing in CT spawn again?!?)  Paranoia is also a possible side effect of drug use and abuse of hostages.  Acute, or short term, paranoia may also occur in some individuals overwhelmed by their inability to reload quickly at critical moments.

If you feel that you have the below feelings, then please seek medical help, NOW.

- Do you have unfounded suspicions (I KNOW that it was him that shot me)?  
- Believe others are plotting against you (when 8 people join T on cs_assault and leave on your own as CT)?
- Preoccupied with partially coroborated doubts about other PCS members?
- Reluctant to confide in others due to a fear that the information may be used to knick your frag?
- Read negative meanings into innocuous on-screen remarks during match play?
- Bear grudges easily (presses Kill Now instead of Forgive TK - Sadako, we remember....!)
- Perceive attacks on your reputation that are probably entirely well founded?
- Maintain unfounded suspicions regarding the fidelity of a spouse or significant other farmyard animal (Sheepy..!)?

If you suffer from these paranoid symptoms you should undergo a thorough physical examination and a properly qualified professional counterstrike player should take your PCS history to rule out possible voice-com failures, soiftware or hardware glitches or other environmental causes (such as extreme gas). If a psychological cause is suspected, a -=[dMw]=-psychologist will be sent to conduct an interview with you and administer one of several clinical inventories, or tests, to evaluate your status.  Please be reassured that we will ALL see the results and laugh our arses off, particularly if it is all self-inflicted, OK?

Once we've diagnosed you as suffering from paranoid schizophrenia, delusional disorder, or paranoid personality disorder (and trust me we will if we get the chance) we will treat you with Antipsychotic medication such as thioridazine (Mellaril), haloperidol (Haldol), chlorpromazine (Thorazine), clozapine (Clozaril), or in really severe cases, Sheepy's latest batch of home brew.  Cognitive therapy (such as, 'can you fire your MP5 in a straight line whilst walking 6 paces to your left') or dagger fighting may be employed by experienced MeatHookers to help you cope with the enormous side-effects caused by constant lag spikes.

If we decide that this is just an underlying condition, such as depression or small valley, rather than a full blown hysteria, then an appropriate course of LAN Parties will be prescribed.  Many patients in the self-help group may be willing to admit to their upcoming course of medication, to be held next month.

Also, because of the inherent mistrust felt by members of Stryker's team, aka paranoid individuals, a certain amount of coercion must be used if people resist PCS paranoia treatment.  Non-participation in treatment may hamper the efforts of other Clan members to spectate the DonkeyCheeseGrater session that Dr Sheepy may prescribe - so please do not be surprised if DM or Oldie delivers a Server Slap if you do not accede.

Some peeps have escaped PCS treatment, albeit with now restricted and dysfunctional lifestyles, but Gandalf constantly battles with his persecutory delusional disorder in full view of normal society.  He is however often found alone in a cliff-top field, talking gently with large friendly-coloured and normally inanimate kites.  Wipe that grin off your face Tut, I said KITES, not women in comfortable shoes, OK?

It was for that reason that I chose Dr Doolittle.  Either that or it was because I thought my two kids would like it.  Go figure......
