Bah - I'm one of the people Trump is talking about. My mother took Tylenol while pregnant. As a result, in kindergarten they put me in special-ed. Then they realized they messed up bad when the early IQ test results came in and my results were off the charts. Reading at 6th grade level, math at 5th grade level and I was still 5 years old. They thought I was "retarded" because I wouldn't do macaroni pictures, wouldn't use the fat crayons or pencils, wouldn't take an afternoon nap, and wouldn't sit and listen to the stupid kid stories the teacher would read. She had no idea how to handle me.

Suddenly the school wanted to move me up to 3rd grade but my Mom wouldn't let them. So - they said I had ADHD and got the doctor to give me ritalin. Yay. Turns out, ritalin doesn't work when you don't have ADHD - it is basically meth of course, so it pretty much just kept me high and anxious. I took myself off of it at around 12 years old. I didn't have ADHD - it was just what they used to call Asperger's. Now they call it Autism, the spectrum, or ASD.

Anyway, I notice things like numbers, typos/missing letters, stuff that doesn't belong, patterns, and other anomalies. It comes in useful, although I can unknowingly (and not on purpose) "rub people the wrong way". I'm used to it.

Edit - it REALLY bothers me that my laptop keyboard has a bad "e" key. I end up editing out (or putting in) a bunch of extra or missing "e" letters in half of my comments. I type "thee" instead of "the" dozens of times a day. Ugh. I caught all but one here before editing it. Glad I'm not OCD.
