Today, my boyfriend of a month had to leave early. I asked him why and he replied that his brother was getting off the bus and he needed to feed him. I had never met his brother, and I said "He can't feed himself? What is he, retarded?" He is. FML
I agree, your life sucks (4816) - you totally deserved it (48407)

Yes, it was snippy, but also, what did she THINK was the case? I mean, I read this and immediately thought mental retardation if he needs to be fed. Not only was she tactless in this moment, but not that bright either.

thats why people shouldnt joke about mental retardation. YDI :)
#2 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:30am by ghostgirll
I agree. It's stupid. YDI all the way. It's offensive, regardless.
#50 - On 07/10/2009 at 7:54am by redbluegreen
You guys got it right. I don't really have a problem when people say something like "that's retarded" but when you ask if a person is retarded, regardless if they are or not, that's crossing the line.
YDI x 9999999999999999999

smooth move
next time a boyfriend tells you he's going to visit his parents instead of having sex with you, don't you dare say, "What, are they terminally ill?"
Because, with your luck, they probably are.

Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
how is it that his brother can't feed himself but is capable of riding the bus alone? you wouldn't think he was that severely retarded if you were already informed that he was at least semi-independent. FYL
Maybe he can feed himself but he can't make his dinner so his brother makes it for him. Or maybe the bus is from a special needs center...
#18 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:02am by catatonicsleep
Who said it was the public bus? He probably meant a handicapped bus, you dumb fuck.
#32 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:56am by FuckedMyLife
Many schools have summer programs for special needs kids, he was probably getting off a school bus

Number 4 gets a thumbs down.
As for the use of the word retard, my brother (who I adore very much) happens to be mentally retarded and I don't have any problem with the word. It's not like people use it literally to attack autistic children. It's in no way shape or form offensive towards those who are mentally retarded, just the stupid people that the insult is being directed towards.
Autism and Mental retardardation are completely different. Granted, Severe Autism can manifest itself in a similar manner as Mental Retardation, they are two completely different disorders. Some autistic people are Semi independent , or in some cases, able to live on their own independently, whereas many Mentally retarded people require lifetime care. My neighbor's son is Autistic, and lives in an apartment in a special complex for people who require on call nursing. He never uses it, has a driver's lisense, a job, and a fiance. he lives a very normal life.
#142 - On 07/10/2009 at 9:17pm by mooreon131
YDI indeed. Mental retardation really isn't funny. I highly suggest watching your mouth in the future, otherwise you'll be getting into a LOT of trouble. Trust me, I know.
#5 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:32am by StallionDuck
Thank you! I hate people who say "That's so retarded" or "What a retard!" ... they should just crawl in a hole and die.
#81 - On 07/10/2009 at 11:12am by redhead12
so your saying that everybody should crawl in the hole and die?
Lets face it, everybody says that nowadays. I overcame autism and I say that only in response of a stupid rule made and if somebody whos NORMAL acts really stupid. If somebody says it either way around me, thats one thing, If somebody calls me retard because of something really stupid I did, I wouldnt be offended because I would deserve it for being really stupid, thats one thing.
Saying 'thats retarded' is really not big of a deal and neither is 'your a retard' unless that statement is made towards a kid with special needs, then I would agree that that person is a scumbag and deserves to die
Get off your goddamn high horse and just let people be. Just because people use terms you don't like isn't a reason to get all uppety about it. Free speech goes both ways.
No, not everyone says that. Also, you might not have a problem with it, but I know a lot of people who have siblings who have mental disabilities and don't like it when people use that phrase.
#150 - On 07/11/2009 at 2:22am by spirited_away33
youve been dating him for a month, and this never came up in conversation? sounds like you dont know him too well... but he sounds like a nice guy for taking care of his bro like that
#7 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:36am by sweet_as_arsenic
I agree, not many people would drop everything and look after their brothers/siblings. Sounds like you've got a good catch. Be more careful with your tongue next time, though.
#8 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:39am by emilysanftwsom
why would you ask why he needs to be fed? doesn't that OBVIOUSLY mean that the brother is handicapped in some way? You're retarded.
#11 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:44am by Casualt1234
Not necessarily. When I was reading them FML, I thought maybe his brother was just very young and coming home from school by school bus.
#19 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:08am by twist_n_shout
with all respect, what kind of school-age kid needs to be fed unless they're handicapped?
#26 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:26am by Casualt1234
Well, a 6-year-old doesn't need to be fed in the way that you stick the spoon in his mouth and all...
But you don't leave a 6-year-old home alone to feed himself, right?
Well anyway, this isn't the case. I also think it was quite obvious that the brother must be handicapped, she should watch her dumb mouth. Lesson learned, I guess.
#36 - On 07/10/2009 at 5:04am by crazy_cat_lady24
If you switched on your brain, you would have gotten the answer yourself. YDI.

#39 - On 07/10/2009 at 5:29am by crazy_cat_lady24
Regardless if he isn't retarded u shouldn't say that ydi but then again it's pretty common I guess so it's no really an insult
#16 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:50am by 19lollipop96
that's why you don't use retard as a synonym for stupid, you fucking idiot. YDI
#21 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:14am by chunkofchange
wow, YDI. that was stupid of you. that's why you shouldn't use "retard" as a name-call to someone you don't know, especially a boyfriend's brother. shame on you
#22 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:16am by HelloImABamf
How do you date someone for a month and not know he has a retarded brother? Have you never been to his house?
This sorta reminds me of when I worked at a 7-11. The guy I was working with was clearly not paying attention to his job at all. A man bought a drink and asked my co-worker to open it for him. How does he respond? "Can't you open it yourself, you look like a strong enough man." I was just about to stop him but too late. The man had one arm and I'd seen him before. I opened the drink for the man. Needless to say, you should really watch your mouth.
Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
HAHAHAHAH! Love it. I would definately say something like this.
#27 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:30am by redxapplexoxo
This is exactly why people (in general) NEED to stop using the word "retarded" so commonly while joking around.
If I were your boyfriend, I would've dumped you. YDI. That was really insensitive of you.
#31 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:52am by scorpiogirl666
You shouldn't use "retarded" "retard" "gay" "dyke", any of those as a derrogitory term. millions of people are retarded millions of people are gay, i'm sure if they knew you were using those to insult other people they wouldn't appreciate it very much. Sorry but YDI.
Step 1: remove shoe and socks
Step 2: Open Mouth
Step 3: Insert foot in mouth
Perhaps you should try thinking before you speak in future. Instead of trying to be funny.. cause your not.
Hope he breaks up with you when realizeds that youre a stuck up c*nt.
#41 - On 07/10/2009 at 6:05am by enlitenbank
just thought you should all know a 'retard' is the correct name for some one with mental dissablilties. i work with 'retards' daily and this is a perfectly P.C name for them.
#42 - On 07/10/2009 at 6:08am by emma_josephine
"Retarded" and "Retardation" are valid words you'll often find in a medical context, but I have NEVER heard an individual referred to as "a retard" in a non-derogatory way. Maybe it's different where you live though.
#46 - On 07/10/2009 at 6:36am by SimpleSimon
I gotta say, we have been programmed to find the term 'retarded' as the more offensive term. We say mentally challenged/handicapped and almost everything else first. Maybe i'm hyper aware of this as I grew up interacting with this community. My step-brother is challenged and aside from the more recognized 'Special Olympics', it seemed that just about every other term was used for group functions. I mean -- I never went to a "Spaghetti Dinner for Retards" fundraiser.
That said, i know how working in that aspect of care giving can loosen those boundaries. I wouldn't reel if I heard a doctor say "retarded" but i would give him the stink eye if he said "a bunch of retards".
Weird... cause here it's politically incorrect... we call them developmentally delayed.
And OP, YDI!!! Watch what you say, if you have the brains to even say that outloud, at least have the brains to think that it just MIGHT possibly be true.
#54 - On 07/10/2009 at 8:39am by UllNeverKnow
...Where are you? My step-mother works as SPED teacher and also has a special-needs child and if one of her co-workers or even her son's doctor called her son or one of her students a "retard" she would kill them. While "metal retardation" is a valid medical term, "retard?" Not so much.
#96 - On 07/10/2009 at 12:42pm by callmecourtney
YDI, for being completely tactless. What other reasons would there be for this guy's brother to need feeding? Several, but none of them are good!
#44 - On 07/10/2009 at 6:31am by SimpleSimon
if hes young and just got home from school, diabetic and cant be trusted to eat properly, some sort of health condition that requires constant attention of food intake such as allergies to things like nuts...plenty of reasons.
#49 - On 07/10/2009 at 7:28am by organisedchaos
The word retard is a proper name. HOWEVER it was used incorrectly. So, she was wrong. If she said "oh is he mentally retarded"? That would have been proper and respected---but she didn't! YDI!
#45 - On 07/10/2009 at 6:31am by UrFlyyness
this is one of the many reasons why you shouldnt make fun of people with a handicap or disability. you should be ashamed of yourself
#55 - On 07/10/2009 at 8:40am by princesspanda06
YDI x 100. I have a handicap brother that I watch and help daily so I get to deal with pleasant people like you all the time. If you're a bit too dense to figure out why a sibling would need to be fed, you ask "How old is he?" That narrows it down immensely and you don't have to let the world know you're an idiot. I hope be dumps you.
I have a brother with autism, and I know how people can act about it. She really should've asked instead of trying to be funny. If he took it as a joke, there's something wrong with both of your senses of humor. I'm just shocked she didn't know beforehand. A month is a long time to not bring up family you live with and help take care of.
I agree with you 100%.
YDI.
#133 - On 07/10/2009 at 5:41pm by redbluegreen
Like #56 said, never ever say something until you're 100% sure, it saves you from sounding like a bitch.
#57 - On 07/10/2009 at 9:03am by LordLayAlot
Why the hell would he being feeding his brother that is perferctly normal?!?! And you just now found out about his bro? WTF YDI next time use observations.
#59 - On 07/10/2009 at 9:22am by eli_guerra
Im a special education teacher, and through classes, we were told to not use the term retard/retarded because it was slowly becoming politically incorrect with all the people decided it is a perfect synonym for stupid. The US in general now is using the term mentally handicap.
If I were him, I wouldnt be your boyfriend anymore.
Way to be disrespectful.
I am SO fucking tired of people using the word retarded like it was a hugly funny thing or a cut. you ignorant asspie! I hope you stay with this guy for a while so you can meet his brother and find out that developmentally disabled people are some of the kindest, most generous hearted people on the planet. you can become a better person and that would be good for you.
Not quite true, Qup. The handicapped are much like other people. It depends on how they are raised, like anyone else. Example: My brother. He had a stroke when he was born, and that obviously caused some problems. He is, however, a nice kid although he sometimes needs someone to step in and keep him in line. On the other side of the coin you can look at some of the Special Ed kids in my school. They know they will never get punished, so they go around hitting guys in the nuts (not joking) and swearing at the top of their lungs. They can be selfish and rude, or kind and helpful, just like anyone else.
Don't generalize here.
Saying things like "They may be slow mentally, but that's okay because each and every one of them is a precious little angel whispering in God's ear" isn't as forward-thinking and helpful as you might think. They are as flawed as everyone else, as they are real people. See how that works?
#86 - On 07/10/2009 at 11:52am by noclevername
I hate how people use that word. my sister is disabled and people use it as an isult. really choose a different fucking word cause your not just insulting the person your talking too
#64 - On 07/10/2009 at 10:01am by colormefancy
what? you guessed right. if he doesn't get over that in 10 seconds there's something wrong with him.
#66 - On 07/10/2009 at 10:25am by krissmundur
I had about the same happen to me. I was out with a friend while two of our other friends were at the one's house and I asked why they wouldn't just leave home and come out with us. The one friend said she needed to stay home and take care of her stepdad and I joked, "Why? Is he 13?" Turns out he was handicapped and lived in a wheelchair. Ooops. I felt bad, but my friend wasn't mad. I don't think it was the first time that happened, either.
#70 - On 07/10/2009 at 10:31am by BatGirl815
I'd probably say the same thing, so I'd be a hyporcrite to hit YDI. Don't worry, we all have moments like that in our lives.
#72 - On 07/10/2009 at 10:38am by epicFAIL_Sometim
Oh please, you never met his brother. How could you have known? It's no big deal.
#73 - On 07/10/2009 at 10:44am by blueknight1st
why did you have to say a smart ass comment anyway? if he had to go, he had to go. i hope he dumps you.

You're an idiot. There are two words I do not like "Retard" and "Faggot", they are used as derogatory terms and it pisses me off A. Having a cousin who is mentally challenged and B. Being part of the LGBTQ community. I bet you're the type of moron who says, "that's gay" to mean "that's stupid.
And even if she didn't meet his brother it's still rude to say it like that. Why couldn't she have said, "why do you need to feed him?" or even "is he ill?" no, the way she said it was rude, snotty and ignorant
YDI x 10
#76 - On 07/10/2009 at 10:59am by LittleMel4
Shut.The.Fuck.Up. No one cares if your little feelings are hurt because your queer and you hate the word faggot. That's your problem because you knew what you were getting into when you decided to turn gay. You really don't have any right to hate that word because you are a fag. If someone called me "straight" or "cracker" I'd just shrug it off because I am one. If you're going to get butthurt about people using those words or calling you one then please stay off sites like these. Because let me tell you, "gay" and "faggot" are part of my daily vocabulary and I don't use them in a "nice way". I don't mean to come off as a homophobe but seriously! If you're going to start bitching about what you are, then you should just go back to being straight. Mentally challenged people didn't choose to be how they are, but you did. So yeah, we shouldn't use "retard" as an insult or whatever, but homosexuality and mental retardation are two completely different things. The same principles of being insulting really don't apply. Once again, I'm not a homophobic, I'm just sick of gays being mad because someone called them what they are, etc.,etc.!
#120 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:36pm by epicFAIL_Sometim
So they just wake up one morning and like the same sex? Sheesh, if that's the case maybe I should become an insomniac so I don't become a hypocrite AND an asshole. You make the decision to turn gay. For example: I've come across some guy-on-guy stuff (don't ask how) and it actually kinda excited me. For other people, they might take it as a signal that they're gay or bi (yes, I know I'm sounding like an ass, don't say anything). Or they might've had some thoughts about their best friend or something, whatever! I'm not gay because of these little incidents, it just meant I'm not 100% straight (and I don't know anyone who is). But maybe they do actually wake up gay, maybe it's some sort of magic thing. Doesn't really matter, it's THEIR lives. But they shouldn't get mad because of the "abuse" of the term "gay". It's what they are and they should be comfortable with all words that describe them, insulting or otherwise (well... Now that I think about it. Faggot is acceptable to get mad at because that term was created just to insult them. Looks like genius can be added to cracker and straight. And twatwaffle, whatever that is.)
#129 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:49pm by epicFAIL_Sometim
Yeah, I know fag can mean cigerette. Haha, I knew someone would say somethig about that. But it can also mean a gay person.
#130 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:53pm by epicFAIL_Sometim
Wait... Why did I say faggot was acceptable to get mad at? It is not! Why do I contradict myself! Why! I take nothing back!
#139 - On 07/10/2009 at 8:02pm by epicFAIL_Sometim
epicFAIL, you fail epically...
1. You're a homophobe.
2. If people insulted you, you'd have every right to be angry about it too. So stfu and stop being an asshole.
#141 - On 07/10/2009 at 9:11pm by tehredbaran
Haha, believe me, I AM trying not to be an asshole. That's where I'm failing epicly. And how is calling people what they are an insult? I guess next time I see someone I don't like I'll send them crying to their mommies by saying, "Hey there, you stupid white heterosexual! Or better yet, CRACKER! Haha, that's right! I called you cracker!". Tell me if you think that would actually work. If it's something you have no control over (like being black) then it's a different case. And you know, maybe I am a little homophobic! Maybe I failed epicly at trying not to be, too. I don't know about you, but there are plenty of people I know who agree with me 100% that gays shouldn't get insulted by being called gay.
#155 - On 07/11/2009 at 9:05am by epicFAIL_Sometim
It's funny because everyone that said you deserve it has said the word retard in place of the word stupid in their life. Everyone makes mistakes.
#77 - On 07/10/2009 at 11:01am by jacktnbc073
Actually, I have not. I hate the word and only use it in the right format, ie, mentally retarded.
Way to generalize jerk.
I love how some of you are calling the OP retarted. Hope to god you're being sarcastic.
#80 - On 07/10/2009 at 11:11am by zachman3334
YDI for being obnoxious, next time you should think before you say something especially something that is considered offensive.
and since you have never met his brother how the hell do you know how old he is? and your boyfriend didn't specify what bus it was , so for all you know the boy could have been like 7 and using the bus on his own.
#82 - On 07/10/2009 at 11:12am by ptrox123
all of you who are bitching about the word retard... shut the fuck up... it's just a word you fucking retards. now stop being such an oversensative pussy and cut this poster some slack
See YDI not because you used the word 'retard' but just because you're stupid. If he has to go home to feed his brother then there probably is a reason. His brother could be younger, his parents might require it and so on and so forth. If you were really curious then you could have just asked him "why" but it doesn't sound like you were. You just sounded like you're a little smart mouthed girl who doesn't think before she speaks.
Lol, that is pretty mean.. but I thought it was funny stupid that you said that.
#91 - On 07/10/2009 at 12:30pm by ClumsyJason
Cut the poster some slack. I grew up not to use 'retard' , but on rare ocassions, it does slip (but of course, I'd quickly use mentally challenged and apologize). Just because if this one event, does not make her obnoxious or an ass, or gives a reason for her boyfriend to break up with her. It may be just an honest mistake, where she at least learned to be more careful now. She just needs to watch her tongue a little more.
#93 - On 07/10/2009 at 12:35pm by stephanietong
I wished that you were retarded so then you would know how he would have felt, you hoe.
#95 - On 07/10/2009 at 12:40pm by ClumsyJason
How did you think it was even remotely okay to say something like that? Not only did you likely offend your boyfriend, but you don't know his brother and had no right to joke like that. He's your boyfriend's BROTHER.
That said, your boyfriend sounds very caring and accepting; he's probably a keeper.
#97 - On 07/10/2009 at 12:47pm by callmecourtney
Your fault for being a bitch. Don't make fun of mentally retarded people. But I'm glad your boyfriend cares enough to do that.
#98 - On 07/10/2009 at 12:51pm by midgetgerbil
why are you people bashing on her? i created an account so to tell you all off.... if u dont like the shit people do, then u probably shouldnt be on this website, because it is alllllllll about people's screw ups... so consequently, any FMLs you read your gonna think the person is an idiot... shut the hell up and just have a good laugh. in all honesty, i think what "slipped" outta her mouth and the total outcome is pretty funny... but no i dont have a problem with mentally challenged people. loosen up.
#99 - On 07/10/2009 at 12:52pm by notsobad89
YDI for opening your mouth like that.
Moments like that are the reason why everybody should think what say before they say it
If everybody thought about what they said before they said it, we wouldn't have this website, would we?
that would have been rude even if the brother didn't turn out to be mentally challenged. maybe his brother is young enough that he rides the bus home from school but still needs someone to cook him dinner. there was really no need for you to be a bitch. sorry but it's true.
if you wernt trying to pass it off as an insult maybe it woulda been ok
#113 - On 07/10/2009 at 2:44pm by greenltrn2003
Amen to 111.
That comment isn't appropriate in any type of situation. This just proves how insensitive you are. I hope your boyfriend sees how immature you are and gives you the boot.
#114 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:07pm by bananapants
Wow, what are you, twelve? Grow the fuck up and learn some sensitivity. It's extremely offensive when you refer to people as "retarded" even if they aren't actually mentally retarded. People like you make me sick.
I like how so many say she is insensitive then they call her named. This post brings out the most hypocritical people I've seen so far.
#124 - On 07/10/2009 at 3:48pm by jacktnbc073
I say 'retarded' all the time. Everyone does. It's the new way of saying 'gay' which is the form of saying 'stupid'. DAMN WE ARE SO HYPOCRTICAL!
#127 - On 07/10/2009 at 4:42pm by Stevieebabyy
Yeah, you really deserved that. First of all you could have at least assumed when he said he needed to be fed. Also you really shouldn't use the "R" word anyway, I get that people use it all the time, but it can really really offend people and if you say it at the wrong time you could get in trouble. Plus people with disabilities are amazing. I work with disabled kids and they are the most amazing people on the planet.
What the fuck else did you think when he said that he needed to feed him?
#132 - On 07/10/2009 at 5:41pm by lifeislife
feed (v.) 1. give food to
To you and everybody else who doesn't understand the English language, feeding is not limited to putting a spoon in a child's mouth. Going to "feed" your brother could simply mean you are cooking food for him. Lots of people ride the bus but don't cook their own dinner. There's lots of reasons he could have been feeding his brother. He probably still didn't mean that he was spoon-feeding his brother.
#143 - On 07/10/2009 at 9:21pm by tehredbaran
I have to say I do have negative feelings towards the use of "retard" outside the politically correct terms. My brother has Down Syndrome and I saw him come home crying becausae of people using that word. I do understand, however and unfortunatly, that it is becoming a part of society's vocabulary. I am not going to sit here and say that was a jack ass move for saying that (I know it was probably hurtful to your boyfriend because that is not a fun thing to hear about a loved one). I don't want to criticize because it is hard to control anything, especially language, in these growing ages. So, YDI totally, but it was a slip of the tongue. If your boyfriend is sensitive about the word (which I'm guessing he probably is because it is hard to have a loved one who is challenged and not be sensitive about "retard") I'm also willing to bet he is used to hearing "retard" in its negative uses. Which also means he can handle it well. I know I ask my friends to limit their use of it around me- I do so politely and explain why- and they are more than willing to watch it around me. So yea its a crappy feeling, but I'm sure he understands and knows how to handle it. Just make sure you watch what you say from now on!
YDI. Maybe next time you'll think more carefully before saying something as "retarded" as you did.

YDI. I'm pretty sure the rates of mental retardation have gone up in the last few years. That's why making jokes about it is just not safe, but still very tactless on your part.
lmao she deserved that disrepsecting retards... i do to but i keep it in my mind and wha does ydi mean?

I'm speaking my mind and I'm trying to be respectful, but that was just dumb. Didn't anyone ever tell you to think before you speak? Your boyfriend should probably pick someone a little smarter...

Jesus, why would you say that?!
I can't say I'm much better. I used to use the word "retard" all the time, but then I started to work alongside people who were mentally retarded and autistic and found out they were nicer and more hardworking than myself.
Point is, I bet you'll never say it again.
How did you not notice that your boyfriend of a month was retarded?

The retarded thing is bad enough, but this chick is obviously a fucking needy bitch. They've been going out a month, the guy needs to leave and gives a reason and she already starts with the whole sarcastically questioning it? Go get dumped.
You deserved it bitch. I hope he dumped your needy ass. I never use the word 'retarded'. It's offensive in whatever context it's used in. It's just as bad as saying, "that's gay!".
Wow. I still can't believe you would say that.

Seriously? Quit ripping on the OP for this, people. She didn't know her boyfriend's brother is retarded, and anyone can make a mistake. Worse things have been said, there's no reason for the OP's boyfriend to "dump her", as the majority of you said should happen.

Your boyfriend of ONE MONTH? After one month, you're already making jokes like that about his family? No wonder you haven't met them yet. He probably doesn't want them to have to deal with you.
Really? Retarded? That's what you said? What are you, 14? Oh wait, you just might be. Doesn't matter; no excuse.

OMG
1-You f'd up. Hes a keeper if hes willing to that.
2-After a month of dating him you don't know those facts about his family?
3-YDI. Your not nice. -___-
YDI.
Don't use retarded as an insult.
And honestly, it's common sense that if your boyfriend must feed his brother, then his brother has a mental or physical disability of some sort.
you sound like a bitch.
the word retarded shouldn't be thrown around loosely, or at all really.

You sound like one of those idiotic shallow worthless bitches. If I was him, I would have fuckin' dumped your ass right their in then. I hope you have disabled kids as well, so you know what it's like, you WORTHLESS BITCH.
Fuck your life, literally. You don't deserve it.
Well unlike all these bitchy awful people leaving comments, I feel your pain. It's a common saying and its not your fault it slipped out. Don't listen to them. And for all those people who say that saying "retarded is bad", go fuck yourselves and get off your high ass horses. I have an adopted brother who is metally retarded and I call him a retard to his face. It's not that big of a deal. back off.
#163 - On 07/19/2009 at 11:39pm by blondiee09
First off: It is a big deal for some people,because it counts as a high insult, mainly the ones who have the affliction (not the ones who are all "well, i never...*scoff*")
Secondly: It's the year 2009, that saying isn't all that common unless you live in a very closed-minded area.
Third: I hope that your half-brother understands the context (i hope) you're using this in (as an odd term of endearment), because if you are just calling him that to be mean or get your way or whatever, F your Life miss.
Finally: what pain? If the person was shallow enough to just roll their eyes and spout off with a line like that after clearly hearing there may be something out of her "comfortable norm", she's already forgotten that she posted this here and has moved on to the next pop culture brainwashing experiment..i mean reality show.
YDI

This is why the word RETARD is not valid anymore. You are a bastard, what the fuck did you fucking expect when he said he had to feed his brother?
I wouldve told you to get lost, bitch.
#166 - On 08/14/2009 at 1:04pm by livingdeath
I won't get off my horse. Maybe you can tear down your brother to his face, but I would never tear down my sister. Anyone who makes fun of her and I see it, doesn't go to school the next day. Or the next day.
#167 - On 08/14/2009 at 1:06pm by livingdeath
And, an adopted brother is not a half brother. He is a brother, dumbass.
#168 - On 08/14/2009 at 1:08pm by livingdeath
wow you still called him retarded after finding out he was. your a badass mutherfucking cunt. YDI
#169 - On 09/07/2009 at 11:05am by Ivan_6421
She never found out he was retarded. She only called him retarded once. Besides she was re-telling the story #169 you dumbass.
