Figure skating related Twitters

Yeah, but now we have a new theory as to why! :D

Actually, it has been brought up/suspected before (ADD) in debates, but IIRC such discussion was quickly shut down. This is probably the closest thing to a confirmation we've gotten. I've known tons of kids with both ADD and ADHD throughout my grade school years so I can usually tell after spending enough time with someone. IIRC almost all took some sort of med for it.

"Closest thing to a confirmation?" It's some other skater I've never heard of making a causal use of a phrase.
And this debate about what he's saying on twitter is no different than what I've said all along about the Net as a whole: Do you want to show off that you have access to someone famous, or do you want to respect their privacy?

Yeah, good point- I myself was a bit surprised that he tweeted that part. But the thing is this- now, it's out there, and you can't take it back.

The swept-back pompadour is about a million times better than the hideous mullet-with-bangs look he wore all last season, so I have no complaints.

I'm all for individuality, but he's so darn cute, I just wish he'd find a style that looks a little less ridiculous. :shuffle:

This look is so much better than the mullet and before that, the way too long hair that made him look like a 9 year old girl. I think he looks cute in the recent pictures...though I admit that I would love to try to style his hair myself. :slinkaway

Its not even close to a confirmation. Hell, I've been told (by people who are basically as qualified to make the diagnosis as Buttle is) that I am "sooooooooo ADD," when I most certainly am not. People throw that diagnosis around so loosely and frankly, it just sounds like an excuse 90% of the time.

I totally agree. That look flatters him, even though it might be a bit more conservative.

Why am I not surprised that Jeff works well as a cartoon character. He could have his own series. Although the only title that comes to mind at the moment is "Beavis and Butthead".

Please don't tell me he's attempting a comeback ala Lambiel!!!!

Buttle could be referring to his job as a choreographer for other skaters.

Thanks! I never thought of that. Choreographing 4.5 minutes which optimizes COP and plays to a skater's strengths and matches the music could be a daunting task!
