In reply to Dr. Hess :
Gil Grissom: By the way, the definition of "retard" is "to hinder" or "to hold back". I think your life is about to become "retarded".
I'm retarded. I'm serious. By definition. My hearing is not 100% since birth, therefore is retarded.
It's able bodied people who made that word bad, not us. It's just a word. I'm not offended when people useem that word. In order for me to be offended, I must value that persons opinion.
In reply to 1988RedT2 :
It's insulting to the developmentally challenged to compare them to someone who doesn't use a turn signal.
In reply to 1988RedT2 :
There's a bunch of insults for being dumb that used to be proper medical names for the developmentally disabled. shiny happy persons needing insults for people when they do dumb things ruins a lot of stuff.
That said I'm not going to stop using the word and will/have added the replacements to my list of insults so I doubt anything is going to change ever.
I thought retard was what you do to your ignition if it pings.
and there was a mission statement on page 1. Keep it clean(ish). "This is not a dank meme thread". Though some of these memes are pretty dank.
if we follow the rules we get to keep the thread. Simple.
