I'm just replying to tell you I'm not going to reply to you anymore. This has apparently stirred some serious anger in you and there's no point to any further discussion between us.
I apologize for any offense and hope things get better for you.

Just FYI, that can also come across as being belittling. I am not being sarcastic and I can see the ambiguity would be confusing, but that seems like a polite way of saying '&!#$ you', I hope you get better. At memorizing?
I apologize in advance for the inevitable offense you will take from this comment.
I think there are plenty of people that have legitimate difficulties doing things and I think there are plenty of people that use excuses as to why they can't do things. What the population of each group is or where sillysaurus falls in it, I don't know. He was quick to label himself handicapped. Then he said he only said that as a technique to extract information from me and that he's just bad at memorization "as most people are" according to him.
Beyond that, I think he's not a nice person. He used insults and name-calling as a frequent technique. He projected feelings he has for other people onto me. He ninja-edited almost all of his posts before deleting them. He got went from 0 to 60 angry over nothing. The guy has issues.
He's not debating me. He's debating every person that ever insulted him and using me as the punching bag while he's doing it. He's not listening to what I'm saying. Every time I reply to him he hears the people who have been putting him down and becomes more angry. Why in the world would I type out another reply to him?
Anyway, I don't see the significance of his question as aimed toward me.
what the difference is between someone who has a mental handicap, and who just isn't very good at memorizing things
He used the word handicap - I was just quoting him. I don't know what a mental handicap that causes you not to be able to memorize might look like. Does he have a traumatic brain injury? That would be a handicap. But he says he was like this since birth. Did oxygen get cut off to him during delivery? I have no idea what he's talking about when he says he's handicapped. How in the world can I answer his question?
In any case, I was aiming my comment at normal people and to head off the next silly question of what normal is, I mean people of typical mental capacity.
What difference does it make what the source of the problem is? Why do you have to know the type of handicap?
edit: he/she has already given an excuse for him/herself to stop answering questions. :(
