One of you guys are going to kill, skin, and nair Spark Dragon
and use that against me
Hippo wins, bear is the hero
I'm imagining the hippo is that cute Korean pigmy hippo that black tourists squished to death
in which case, it's def the hero
ok, I have looked it up
Moo dang has not been squished by black people
false alarm
what the fuck chink land is he in then?
it's not China or Japan
Thailand
that is not Korea, I'll agree
that hippo got ugly
Moo deng on right
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 that is not Korea, I'll agree
Does this imply if it were somewhere like singapore you would dispute that it is in fact korea

it's swung back around
it was definitely off-limits for a few years
but I hear "retard" more than throwaway swear words "fuck/shit" in even professional settings
I feel like if you try to make a point not to say retard, you probably also don't say midget, crazy, schitzo, etc.
he's just spazzing out
so much of our language is derived from adjectives used to describe weirdos
psycho
Jaz, what word would you use directly with a \___
I feel like most of the words I can think of, are more insulting than retard/retarded
if you were talking to someone high-functioning, but clearly off
I think it can be, but the yes option is not worded in a way I would vote for it so I abstain
I think for sure you can use it as one, but no one is using it that way when they say someone/something is retarded
I don't use the word myself, but I don't think it's necessarily that strong of a word. I don't know why it suddenly became a slur. I remember seeing someone use it casually in another server I'm in a few years back and someone got really annoyed at the guy using it and I didn't understand why.
It barely registers as a contentious word, let alone a slur
