End the "R" word.

I am someone who used the word retarded recently, and it is because I do think that my narc does actually suffer from a form of retardation, for real. I am fully aware of what retardation is and my observation is that he was born with some form of it. Totally and completely serious about this.

You saw Michele use it twice and when Vernonrose corrected me I apologized. The first time I used the "r" word to describe a visual of the narc. The second time I used it to respond to vernon roses correction and explain how there was no other word I could use to describe the visual. Being conscientious to the sensitivity, I did some research on my own, ate a big serving of crow...and apologized for offending vernon rose. Twice in my personal opinion is not ALOT and you may have also noted the aforementioned details as well as that particular incident was in the same post. Moreover, if this was a hypothetical situation and you ran a red light and the car before you did also, it isn't a great argument to say "But officer, the guy in front of me did it" the point is, he's addressing you. While Vernonrose is not an officer...sometimes we're just asked to stop something because it's offensive. Why bring a third party into it? You either agree or you don't and that's the end of it...why the need to compare?
