• What does 'Special' mean [IN THE CONTEXT GIVEN]
    12 replies, posted
Creating a new thread because its impossible to reset polls and I need a more accurate result. [B]CONTEXT[/B] "[I]Right, pick up your pens - or crayons if you're special[/I]" Given in that context, what do you think the word 'special' means?
What about "or crayons [I]if you're[/I] special" Where "special" means mentally retarded
In this case, it could be a typo and means mentally handicapped, or maybe it's a way to say preference.

Oh shit sorry.
Whoever wrote that sentence should quit writing.
It sounds like special as in mentally impaired, but I don't know of any adults, lets say teachers who look after special kids who would refer to them as special to their faces.
Whoops, I accidentally voted what I thought OP was. I suppose the answer is the same, either way.
Obviously points to that crayons are for retards.
