Case in point!

But yeah. In the UK it's used as a slur against people with disabilities that impact muscle control, such as cerebral palsy.

I actually saw that in the thread below just after I made this comment.

Does that apply to the shortening of "spaz" as well? I'm planning on moving to England eventually, so I guess it's probably a good idea to know whether or not I'm going to offend people by calling myself a spaz. I've literally never heard it used for people with cerebral palsy before

'Spaz' or 'spacker' are more common slur forms than 'spastic' from what I remember. I've heard it became a slur due to, back in like the 1980s, The Spastics Society (a charity) doing TV spots featuring disabled people that tweens found inadvertently amusing. :/
