DH on why sex is...

the most important the couple days before I ovulate:

Me: We need to make sure we have sex as much as we can this week so your sperm can be waiting for my egg.

DH: Really?  So they are like the walmart greeters in your tubes?

Me: Well, yes, but hopefully less retarded.

lmao

That was bad I know, but take it for what it is.

    Not at all. ?More the use of retarded. ?That's all. ??

  • Yeah...I don't think that's funny.

    yeah, but I meant it in a "larry the cable guy" kind of way.

  • HAHAH That's hilarious. There is nothing wrong with the word retard. MR is a real condition.  I think it's funny on many levels.  Devil

    I wasn't going for anything but surface funny, I think that took it to a whole other level.

    Real funny until it is your child, sibling or loved one.   You have no idea how funny it is to explain to a child the reason people like you laugh at them.  It is real funny that people diagnosed with MR can not function to the full extent as a normal human.  Real funny.  So funny I forgot to laugh.

    me?  Retarded is an official term, my brother is retarded so I feel as though I have a special right almost to use it.  Just to compare, I meant it as though someone calls someone white instead of caucasian. (sp)  Nothing terrible.

  • This.
    And...um... MR is not funny...ever. While a sense of humor is crucial in order to survive life and its many difficulties, blatantly exploiting conditions such as MR for a temporary chuckle, is low.

    ETA: Forgot to quote I guess. "This" was referring to Glitter Siggy.

  • I'm very confused as to why people are so sensitive to the word "retard" ? My Dh always says that the reason there is so much handicapped parking at Walmart is so that the employees have good parking spots.  To the OP, your husband is funny and there is nothing wrong with what you said.  Some people just feel the need to be overly PC.

    SERIOUSLY? WTF So just because someone works at Walmart they are retarded? You and your DH just throw that word around like its nothing? Both of you are pathetic.

    I agree that you took this thread to a WHOLE new level. Hmm

  • I'll probably get flamed for this, but I never associated the word "retarded" with people who actually had MR. We just didn't call it that so it was almost like we didn't know the meaning of the word or that they were two totally different things. I've learned from being here that it's unacceptable to say in a derogatory context though, whether you know it or not. Otherwise it never would have occured to me.

    WOW, this chick took this to a whole new level that I was never going for.  I would never be like that.  I feel really bad that she actually likes my thread for the wrong reasons.

    Oh wow. So, I have gay friends. Should I be able to gay-bash? That is some effed up logic you have there.
  • Throwing around the word "retarded" isn't funny. BUT I can understand what you meant by "Larry the Cable Guy" type person. Retarded was just the wrong word to use here.

    Idea of the original comment= funny

    Delivery= not so funny

     

     

     ***** This comes to you from some one who works w/ MR/MI/DD population.

  • All i'm saying is it's funny. Survival of the fittest. It might be mean but it's the truth.  I would never outwardly mock some with with a disability but I do think some people are a bit over sensitive about the word.

    I seriously could punch you right now.  You as a sister to a person with who is MR should fuking know better.  My brother is classified as MR, autistic, bipolar, and several other medical problems and I have NEVER felt that I had a right.  You are seriously screwed in the head to feel you have a right to anything. Your BROTHER deserves a better sister and advocate for him.

    HmmSeriously? You have a special pass? I'm a special ed. teacher and have students w/ MR, do I get a special pass to be ignorant? Or do you have to blood related for that? Ugh.

    ABC- no I didnt mean to seriously say retarded people are stupid or for that matter gay people are stupid.  I do joke around though.  I don't associate the word retarded with people who might really be handicaped.  It is a term I use for stupid people, not people who are handicaped.  As for gay people, joking is fine, I would never judge a person for being gay.  Why did this post get taken so far out of context?  I never meant it like that.

    I may be over sensitive.  It is because I have held my brother down so he could sleep, because of people like you.  Have you ever had to explain to a person why they will never fit in?  You can go fukc yourself now.

  • Wallace is far, far out of line. My dad is disabled and NEEDS closer parking. I find no humor in you at all.

    nvladen...use better words next time. Live and learn. It's not like she went up to a person who is MR and kicked them. Accept this as a learning moment and move on.

    I was pretty much ignoring the original post at first. Some people don't find the term offensive. I get that. It's the "special right" comment that's gone a bit too far.

  • NMA is on the perma-douche list.  Survival of the fittest?  Really? 

    And NL, you're teetering on the edge.  You should know better, especially if you have a brother who is DD.

  • Now what does one get for being on the perma-douche list.  A nice trophy or a button?

    I agree. I also work with elementary kiddos with these disabilities and when you see other kids, teachers, adults in the building laughing at / making fun of them it's heartbreaking.
