Don't you mean "too bloody lazy to spell it right"?

I assume means exactly what he says - he's dyslexic, but not badly. Some people are worse than others - it varies from mild to severe. A cousin of mine is dyslexic and can't spell to save himself. A friend is dyslexic and less frequently makes spelling errors. Tiredness can be a factor too in the severity if its impact.

BTW - he also spells like crap in parts which probably don't relate to dyslexia, but your first line is a bit rude.

Bugger . . . it was meant to be very rude.

It reflects my scepticism.

Everybody suffers from some kinds of neurological anomalies when dealing with language . . . everybody has certain words that give trouble, or sentence structures, or grammatical rules, or whatever. But all of those hurdles can be overcome with a bit of determination and effort, except for some severe dyslexics who can't recognise any language structures at all.

Okay, I've let off enough steam . . . time for bed!
