I also dont see the big deal with mentally retarded. In a very specific sense, it is accurate. That reaction is learned, and instilled by political correctness.
If you think I'm a jack ass and want to call me that? Go right the fuck ahead, I'm just going to laugh at you anyway.
The purpose behind the statement means 1000000 times what the words do.
