I wasn't trying to shut it down, just for Caboose, because he's the most unrealistic character out of all the characters in this show. Most of the other character at least act realistic enough where you could explain their behavior, even if some can get a bit far-fetched. Of course you'd never know what they have for sure, but at the very least, you could find a condition for them that seems likely or plausible. But Caboose is literally a walking joke in human form. I don't believe it's physically possible to explain exactly what it is that Caboose has. I mean, if you guys really want to know that badly, go ahead and keep trying. But due to how RT wrote Caboose, you're never going to find a satisfactory answer, only one that's "close enough, maybe" or something along those lines. Mental conditions on their own are problems with normal humans - something Caboose isn't. He wasn't written with any conditions in mind, only to be funny. These conditions do not apply to him because he is outside the realm of human understanding. He's THAT unrealistic.

Also, I don't know enough about this stuff to give you any specifics, but I believe a lot of characters suffer from lack-of-screentime-itis. Tragic.
