Dyslexia

And now for the world's most unsurprising confession.
Dr Sardonicus is dyslexic (as any of you eye spy chief's will have surmised as his f@@king adress for his blog is misspelled).
Or is he? Dr Sardonicus was tested for dyslexia after driving atleast one professor at Birmingham Uni into a breakdown of Susan Boyle proportions (though fortunately with out the lusting after Piers Morgan weirdness [a reason for a trip to the Priory for anyone {heck I'd lock him up for liking himself}]). The result was Dr Sardonicus has the spelling ability and word recogniton of HAL after he humped the OED. But the memory skills of a chimpanzee that had just had it's brain served up as a desert to Peter Andre.

Is this dylsexia? The very nice psychiatirst administering the test answer seemed to be
"Probably, or maybe not either way you're not right."

An accurate judgement and well worth the 500 squids of your taxes it cost. But it's always been there for Dr Sardonicus, whose greatest works of writings may be mildly amusing but would require Alan Turing and Bletchley Park to spell check (which Dr Sardonicu visited the other week and would highly reccomend especially the tour). Infact Dr Sardonicus at meetings and training has to conciously shut himself up. As the mismatch between his verbal skills and later work has convinced a great many people he surely must be taking the piss (if only). Rather like a parrot left in the room of Albert Einstein, it may sound great but if you hire it to build an atomic bomb all you're going to get is a very mess lab.

At one point Dr Sardonicu was pondering if his problems maybe on the Autistic Spectrum . At which point a slightly cheaper psychologist suggested that Dr Sardonicus could probably sufficently bull shit any test to convince people he was anything. Which raises the question,
How does Dr Sardonicus make psychologists et al feel so comfortable being blunt?

Frankly Freud would have probably said to him,
"It's not your mothers fault you're just a bit of an arse who should learn to spell."

Dr Sardonicus was thinking of joining a dyslexia support group, but who'd have been able to read their placards?
