Yes, and that's the way I used it, not in a disparaging way towards mentally challanged individuals, but towards MYSELF.
If I had said, "Sorry guys, didnt know I was a mentally challanged individual" would that have had the same impact? Nope.
Would that have been the intent of my saying what I did? Nope. It was meant in the same way as calling ones'self an idiot. Idiot is a seldom used word to describe a person who acts in a way that shows them to be incapable of understanding their surroundings.
I guess I was an idiot to call myself a retard.
Second anyone?
