@an50331 And probably feeling like a freak, and people giving you looks and questions and remembering every single embarrassing moment and insult.. I had a biology teacher with an almost photographic memory and she sometimes regretted having it. I think I'm alright being normal. :/

zero creativity, thats the price you pay

the term "idiot" is used to say that he is not able to socialize with people properly.

Idiot Savant is the medical term for this. The title is not meant to be offensive. It's what professors use in lectures, because Idiot and Savant are both french words and the phrase is french. As explained, he is severely disabled, but that does not demean his intelligence.
