@KeepTakingTheSoma @Fullycaffeinated Himself has appalling hand writing, due to having had two massive seizures as a toddler that damaged his spatial awareness etc, hence his leaving things like the coffee tin anywhere but where it lives and not being able to find anything by verbal description etc etc. When he went to school they assumed he was backward and left him in the sandpit until one teacher...a battleaxe from Lewis...said no, this child is capable. He is actually super academic, he got a first with hons at uni and was to do a PhD at Cambridge, they asked for him. Silly arse didn't take it up, although he doesn't regret it now seeing as unis are as they are. But he keeps saying to them look, I did it and I had problems, I completely fail a certain part of the tests we use on you when you come into secondary school, the biology teacher is dyslexic, so he won't buy it from them when they whine either. It's that they are not willing to at least try that annoys him, and their total lack of any intellectual curiosity about anything at all.
