Re: Cake thread reminded me...

[(Anonymous)]

It's an acronym (Time and Relative Dimension in Space), it's a legacy term being 50 years old, and it's clearly completely unrelated to the problematic term that it happens to sound like.

Thanks. I didn't realize it was an acronym. I get the reasoning, but I'm still surprised it's given a pass, what with people not always being logical about stuff like that.

I don't think Who was very well known in America until New Who. There is a very different slur that's used instead in the UK. So I think it has more to do with where the show originated than when.

NAYRT - Okay, I've Googled, and I just keep coming up with Dr Who stuff (go figure). What IS this problematic "tardis" word that is NOT related to Dr Who?

Re: Cake thread reminded me...

[(Anonymous)]

"Tard" is frequently used as am insulting derogatory slang abbreviation for "retard", which is itself commonly regarded as a derogatory term.

Re: Cake thread reminded me...

I'm assuming "tard", which is short for "retard".
