Wow the PC bullshit meter just went through the roof on that one Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 27/10/2011 06:31:40 PM
I was sending a text and the iphone froze and the the apple logo came on for a fe seconds and then everyhting went to my normal sreen and then i went to my messages and NOTHING was there. I turned off the phone an turned it back on and my messages are STILL gone. I am not very tech savvy but im not retarded either. can anyone help me? I dont wanna go on the apple board and ask because people on there can be very nasty and smart alecky when replying to problems they think are stupid or simple to fix.

Using the term "retarded" to refer to a stupid action isn't cool. Just like using the phrase "that's gay" to refer to something stupid isn't cool.

If you are simply making sure we know that you are, in fact, not mentally handicapped, then my apologies for the above comment.


Retarded is a common turn of phrase and in no way a scathing comment or derision of the mentally handicapped. Also, "that's gay" is in the same neighborhood. Just like black people can use the N word amongst themselves. It's all about context.

Couldn't you assume that there was, based on the fact that she wanted them? *NM* - 27/10/2011 03:07:41 PM 271 Views
It was my first question too. - 27/10/2011 04:51:06 PM 626 Views

not to mention it's how these words become so offensive in the first place. - 27/10/2011 06:59:21 PM 645 Views
This isn't actually true. - 27/10/2011 07:29:02 PM 697 Views
I was speaking in general, not just for "retard" - 27/10/2011 07:50:17 PM 648 Views
They probably shouldn't be using 'dumb' in their definition if they're making an argument against - 28/10/2011 01:24:50 AM 661 Views
Why not? *NM* - 28/10/2011 02:06:12 PM 282 Views
Because 'dumb' wasn't always synonymous with stupid. - 28/10/2011 02:41:18 PM 828 Views
Yeah. - 28/10/2011 03:08:29 PM 584 Views

It is a derision of the mentally handicapped though. - 27/10/2011 07:25:29 PM 636 Views
I'm not okay with people saying "that's gay" - 28/10/2011 01:39:53 AM 752 Views
Let me guess: straight white male? Mmm... privilege. *NM* - 28/10/2011 04:09:44 AM 283 Views
First thing I thought off. Add "14 year old" to the list, though! *NM* - 28/10/2011 06:38:01 AM 334 Views
