Had a bit of trouble in school?

If you consider someone giving you advice as an argument then never mind, I give up.

No, though I feel you want it to be so you can poke a little fun at me.

I have a problem with you saying "trouble." Saying things like "he's trouble" or "he's lazy" etc guilt-trips the child into feeling bad about themselves. I think it is good now that people (parents, teachers, etc) moved away from saying things like that and look for underlying causes and proceed from an understanding what they are.

Just moved back in with my parents. I'll be here a week before I leave for my trip. I've been gone two years. This is weird.

Missing the point. You can have things like dyslexia or ADD and have average to above-average intelligence. "Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci and Thomas Edison are usually at the top of the list of famous dyslexics." (source: Google)

I've been out of doors for the ten minutes it takes to realize that most people don't have a disability, they're just dumb, and should be treated accordingly.

That is quite an achievement, are you a boy in a plastic bubble?

By ignoring the second half of my sentence, I'm going to assume that you agree, but just don't want to acknowledge it since it would undermine your touchy feely bull****?
