You need to not use the word "retarded" cause... well, obviously. It's become a derogatory word, regardless of what it actually means or how it used to be used.
If you mean uneducated, then sure, if you mean stupid, yeah go for it, but mentally disabled and diagnosed? ...not sure I agree.
I know i understand the word... To me its a fun way to point out your embarassing mistakes...it certainly started as a scientific word...maybe i use it to point out the absurdity that past doctors actually used this word. Today, i would call those doctors retarded, they dont have a physical or. mental disability but they are fucking dumb
You shouldn't use it anymore though. Its connotation isn't good. You said elsewhere you thought English is a broken language? It isn't, you just don't understand it.
If by retarded u mean stupid (which u prob do) then yes ur right. Mentally tho…

People can think of me how they wish I honestly don't care but don't get pissed when I feel the same way
