@alice I read encyclopaedia as a kid for interest (_tell me you are on the spectrum without telling me you are on the spectrum_) and got the nickname "prof" at about age 8.Fast forward 10 years and at uni I was unbeatable at pub trivia competitions, and everyone wanted to be on a team with me, because the prize was a drink card for the next week's competition (that ticks the trivia box).The combination of too much drinking and lack of study led to me dropping out of uni, but those facts are still stuck in my head and I still kick ass at trivia.#TellAlice

@azonenberg @alice I have read snippets; look something up, and keep going. Can't spell, mind you, but can define.Latin at school helped me understand the anatomical terms of the uni degree that I dropped out of.#TellAlice
