The point of EOM is to make my source seem credible and oh-so-reliable.

However, reasons why I DO NOT think it is reliable

1. The author is vulgar. He uses the four letter "f" word in his write-up.
2. When asked for references, he directs people to the search engines.
3. He takes a childish delight in calling renowned professors and psychologists names.
4. There is no scientific backing whatsoever for his theories. They are all made up in his head and in fact, some of them even contradict scientific records.
5. He tells the read not to skip his footnotes, and then includes things like "lol" in them
6. The paper is about criticising experts on autism. Ironically enough, the author is autistic!

Hopefully Miss Huo doesn't read this. An exerpt from my EOM, which has thankfully left out the harsher and more vehement points of the author:

"While it is evident from his strong language and vehement tone that he bears much anger and frustration towards psychologists, he admits in his paper that it is “a highly personal account”, and that it is this same strong resolve that has given him the “determination and motivation” for this paper. His fervent and heated manner may be interpreted as biasness, but in not holding back his true feelings or trying to remain on the fence, it is undeniably honesty on the author’s part, and this honesty adds to the source’s authenticity."

All crap. CRAP.
