Retards

[Mudcat]

I guess this is a word that is going increasingly out of favor with the politically correct and maybe soon it will be the "r" word, but I hope people know what I mean.

Like I have nothing at all against people with genuine learning disabilities or whatever. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the guy who waits for 5 minutes in a supermarket checkout line and finally reaches the front of the line and has all his items scanned and bagged and only upon being told a final dollar figure does he suddenly realize he is going to have to pay and that's when he begins fumbling around with his wallet and then he says, "Oh by the way, I've got coupons!"

I've been encountering quite a few retards like that in the last couple days.

Get what I mean? Like not actual professional retards, but recreational retards.

I propose "fucktard" to avoid offending any specific group.

Full retard is the correct term, My fav. is the fat cunt who picks up more items than she has enough for and has to sit there for 5 mins deciding which items she wants to put back

Right on brother. If you really mentally challenged, then MrsM and I are genuinely compassionate people. I know I should be calm (MrsM always reminding me) but that is the type of shit that pisses me off too!

As with so many things in life, South Park brings some perspective to the discussion of retards.


Stan: Did they find out who crapped in the urinal yet?
Kyle: Not yet.
Cartman: They aren't going to find out who did it. But they'll make up a scapegoat, send him to detention, and make us all believe it. It'll be 9/11 all over again.
Kyle: Will you shut up about 9/11!
Cartman: Kyle, why are you so afraid of the truth?!
Kyle: Because anybody who thinks 9/11 was a conspiracy is a retard!
Cartman: Oh really? Well did you know that over one-fourth of people in America think that 9/11 was a conspiracy? Are you saying that one-fourth of Americans are retards?
Kyle: Yes. I'm saying one-fourth of Americans are retards.
Stan: Yeah, at least one-fourth.

Plommer! I'm trying to be a compassionate person here and you give me this! You funny fuk!

 

[Dunder]

I know I am not supposed to find that funny but the guy in the middle at 0:10 cracks me up.

Or takes 5 minutes to write a check. Who pays with a check these days?

This one still amuses me.

I was riding my bike along a bike path today. Bright peaceful day down by the lake. There were two women walking ahead of me and as I pedaled past them, the one woman jumped away and shrieked. I guess the idea that a bicycle might come along the bicycle path never occurred to her and when it happened she was so taken by surprise that she honest-to-gawd shrieked out loud.

I think she was dabbling in a little retardation.

I bet if you look through it, you will find some mention of retards.

 

[Matty]

I bet you could rearrange the words in the Random Thoughts thread to recreate Shakespeare's whole body of work.

There are some pretty obscure, arcane, olde englishy retarded kinda words in Shakespeare

It sounds like you're saying that Gamelive posters are not up to date on their Middle English.

Maybe I'm reading you wrong.

Some of us went to school you know. Not me but I hear that Tella's a doctor of some sort.
