As someone who works with individuals with intellectual disabilities, I find this language offensive and your decision to use it regrettable.

So what is the rule that you are only allowed to call people who are actually retarded, 'Retarded"? And not to use it as an insult?

Even a retard knows not to duplicate a thread title in the opening post. That's just poor form, no matter your level of handicappedness.

The term is antiquated and shouldn't be used for anyone.

Why is it antiquated? It is a scientific term like saying someone has down's syndrome. I have a degree in Psychology we used the term in our diagnostic manual.

You should get a newer diagnostic manual. The DSM V has stricken "mental retardation" from axis I and II diagnoses in favor of "intellectual disability disorder." (I believe the same was already done on the latest DSM IV TR, but do not have a copy handy to confirm.) This is in response to a federal mandate called Rosa's Law.
In psychology and human services, the title QMRP has been replaced with QIDP.

The absurdity of some people and the amount of time they waste on such asinine things as political correctness so amuses me. Sad that THIS is what some people do in order to make themselves feel as they have done something good for society while all they have done is feed their own megalomaniacal egos.

Yeah, well look where his cavalier attitude to saying "reatard" got him.

My apologies to any of you who have Down's Syndrome, or who have relatives or spouses who have Down's Syndrome.
Anyway, I wasn't referring to them looking like they have Down's Syndrome, because they clearly don't. I was referring to the fact that they look like the type of vacant looking stoner/jocks (who are now in their 40's and probably working at a fast food restaurant) I went to high school with who called me "faggot" because I had a Billy Idol haircut.

I think we're coming up on 4 years (holy shit!) soon.
He attempted to incite destruction of another band's property in his last tweet. Sounds like a lovely guy. (https://twitter.com/jayreatard/status/7642170694)

As opposed to those dudes (now in their 40s and probably working for the government) who still harbor resentment about being called a name in high school thirty years ago?

james and his life and how he sees the world . . . is so obviously controlled by who or what did things to him while he was in high school.

I think we had DSM IV when I was in college. But it has been a long time. So terms like "Moron", "Idiot" and "Imbecile" aren't used to identify levels of retardation anymore? It is strange that terms that were used to classify people scientifically get changed. I guess once a stigma gets put on a word they need to change them for some reason.
When I was fostering children we had one kid (11 year old) who was classified as retarded as his IQ was calculated at 75. After he was with a year his IQ jumped to 110 and he was not only no longer retarded his IQ was above average. You would think that IQ should be a steady thing and not change that dramatically in one year. They also had labeled him with Aspergers at one point which I don't believe even exists.
Anyway not trying to offend anyone. The constant name changing stuff is of interest to me. "intellectual disability disorder." I guess is fine. It is better than something like "African American" that makes no sense to me. Or "little person" which if I were one I would find offensive.

Nope. We've also stopped referring to people as "Mongoloids." Wild and wacky times.

I got called worse for having a Robert Smith hair-cut but I didn't care as I was the one banging all the chicks.

It got removed in DSM V, or more specifically, it's just a severity on the autism spectrum now instead of a listed, seperate diagnosis.

At one point I was thinking about getting a Masters in Child Psychology so I could be a guidance counselor as I thought their couldn't be a job much easier than that (Which is probably only true for a few public schools like the one I attended where nothing interesting happend) Now I think I would be lost as they changed the names on everything.

They so many more kids have Autism these days than back 30 years ago and they don't know why. I think the reason is they are labeling people as having Autism that would have never received that label 30 years ago. Just like everyone has AHDD these days. No one had that when I was in school.

what does atomic do, i wonder . . . he once claimed to have an intern.

what does anybody do?

I am not in a psychological field at all. I won't say what I do but I do have a paid Intern. I think he makes 20 bucks an hour but he doesn't get benefits.

Yes, the discovery/wide-stream acceptance of new diagnosis probably leads to more people being diagnosed with it. People died of AIDS, in all likelihood, before 1981, we just didn't know it was AIDS.

man . . . if i had a male intern. oh, nevermind, where i was going to go with that.

I've been a big fan of Crookers since I got into dance music. The dude with the hat actually left the duo so now Crookers is just 1 guy [guy on the left, Phra] and they're both Italian. Pretty stoked that he's spinning at 930. I remember like 6 years ago I never ever thought I'd see them in DC. Now they've played Uhall, Echostage and now 930. Funny how things change.

Pictures or it didn't happen.

they are djs? . . . i knew they did, a lot, a lot, of molly.

They both are DJs, tomorrow it will just be Phra because they split up about a year and a half ago. If anyone is interested the guy who left [Bot, guy on the right] has a label called Main Course and they release tons of free dance music. Pretty awesome stuff.

Or drug manufactures create something so they can sell more drugs. AIDS is not the equivilant of Aspergers or AHDD. It is just like how everyone is depressed and they buy medicines for it. Nevermind more people kill themselves on anti-depressants than depressed people who are not on anti-depressants. Depression is a symptom not disease.
Schizophrenia is a real condition. Bi-polar is real. You know how you can tell these are real and not the other nonsense they come up with? Identical twin studies. If it were a disease than Identical Twins seperated at birth should have a strong incidence of correlation.

That's why I created it. ;)
