Here's why I said that:

He said a couple days ago that he watched that Fairly Oddparents special "Fairly OddBaby" on Nickelodeon and he said he didn't really understand what the cartoon was about (maybe because he doesn't watch cartoons a lot).

One of the differences between me and my friend is that stuff that's easy for me is hard for him, like basic math skills (he can't really do simple math stuff like addition, subtraction, division, etc. and he's in 10th Grade.)

Also, my friend moved down here from Philly a year ago and he doesn't really the culture here in North Carolina (I've asked him a few questions about the state).

I forgot one thing: my friend (possibly) has AS.

Getting him to watch what we like is the first step, roydgerdodger.
