Re: Yeah, I'm gonna go back to saying "retard"

I don't think Titus can sell me on retard, but I've always found retarded a valid adjective. It's just not a battle I feel like fighting, so I save it for conversations with people I know won't care.

Well retarded actually is a valid adjective. It's medical/academic terminology.

...It's just not something you direct at someone specifically.

True, but on the other hand it doesn't mean stop using it as per normal.

When have you ever seen anyone up in arms because someone said that such-and-such antimicrobial retarded the growth of their bacterial cultures? (Admittedly, that's a verb rather than an adjective, but...)

In legal and medical contexts, yes, but it's actually being phased out of use in many of those contexts (much as the medical use of 'idiot' and similar terms was before it), so there's justification for complaining about individuals and organizations that are behind the times.

Most people don't use it as medical terminology, though.

Most people use it while pointing and laughing at other people.
