I hate when people use "retarded" and "gay" as derogatory terms. I try not to, but sometimes it slips.

I also hate when people use "suicide" as a verb. "OMG I KNEW A GUY WHO SUICIDED HIMSELF." wtf.

Uh, retarded is an adjective.. Whether you use it offensively or not, that is the only correct way to use it.

Same.
Except the suicide thing. Never heard anyone use that in such way.
Sorry for your brother and cousin. sad.gif I sometimes say retarded.. like.. that way when I get mad. And I use gay to the new kid because I despise him as much as I possibly can. mellow.gif

I hope you do realize that there are more than one meaning to the word retarded. It also means "to be delayed." So it technically makes sense.

I dislike that as well.
How about just not using it right?

There are hundreds of other words that one can use that is less offensive.
-__-
Maybe not hundreds...but still, more than one!

well i use gay sometimes but not retarded or suicided or anything. but like seon ho said, retarded isn't only refering to someone being mentally disabled.
QUOTE

To cause to move or proceed slowly; delay or impede.

also when people say something is gay or retarded they aren't meaning it to be offensive. like when my friend says, "my computer is being gay." she doesn't mean it the same way as a guy who is gay. y'know? so it shouldn't be taken too offensively. everyone conotes the word. just like pimp by definition means a manager of prostitutes but when someone says, "Oh that's so pimp!" they don't mean it that way.

i try not to use gay either...but i slip sometimes, i have nothing against the gay and lesbian community, they don't bother me, let them do their thing, i have heard suicided too _dry.gif it's so stupid, i have also heard "i want to suicide" and "i tried to suicide" it all makes no sense
QUOTE
suˇiˇcide
n.


The act or an instance of intentionally killing oneself.

The destruction or ruin of one's own interests: It is professional suicide to involve oneself in illegal practices.

One who commits suicide.

it's as if they're saying "i want to the act or instance of intentionally killing oneself" that makes no sense _dry.gif

Haha what kind of person says "I know a guy who suicided himself!!!" WTF x infinity =P

Sometimes I accidentally let "retarded" and "gay" slip. I guess by the fact that I hang out with people who do say those words along with many other derogatory/slang words/phrases and I get influenced to say it. pinch.gif But I try not to.

But I like the word wierd. :D

Gay means happy.

Why is that offensive?

And people don't usually say those words to be mean. It's just another way of saying extremely stupid.

It's slang.

Gay-happy
Faggot-bundle of sticks or a cigarette
Bitch-female dog

Words evolve.
