    I wonder if they get as offended when people use other outdated medical terms like idiot and imbecile.

      I’m hoping Cretin makes a comeback, it’s got a certain feel I just think should be applied more often.

      FAS baby could be used for offensive reasons but I also think it’s a pretty accurate description of tons of folks in the public sphere who very much aren’t helping our society writ large.

      I’m probably going to hell for this post. I’m not a good person.

        Yeah that’s dark lol. Don’t worry about it, I’d say you could count on one hand the number of truly good people who’ve ever existed.
