re: #556 Mr. In get Mr. Out

I still use retard as a verb. To ban certain words takes vibrancy from a language. Perfect words are few and far between, so it is best to have them all.

I remember getting into it with a bartender who took offense to my using ‘gay’ as a dispariging adjective. Barely a minute after objecting to my use of the word ‘gay’, I overheard him griping that someone ‘Jewed’ him out of a tip. He defended his choice of words, claiming that gays have it rougher than Jews today- to which I asked ‘When was the last time someone rounded up Six million gays into death camps?’
