Like literally retarded with the puffy eyes and not able to form thoughts? Someone told me it might be allergies but I have no other symptoms.
That's a ridiculous and totally inaccurate use of the term "retarded", or the word "literally", unless you are in fact actually intellectually backward?
You weren't forming your thoughts to well when you wrote this post, were you?
Is "retarded" still an acceptable term in the USA?
As for what you experienced, I think the person who suggested an allergic reaction might have a good point. If your eyes are puffy, your sinuses are clogged up, and you're feeling vaguely generally crap, it can be difficult to think clearly.
Well, you shouldn't say retarded, because that is gonna piss off a lot of people, and truthfully you aren't diagnosed as retarded.
However, it is possible that you may have problems concentrating, and find yourself feeling very out of it due to your sinuses. It's possible that you may have a sinus infection. I used to get lots of chronic sinus infections when I lived in Las Vegas, because I have a hard time with a really dry air especially during allergy season.
No, I don't think you can be that one day.
We all have off days though.
As for the word retarded.
I guess I follow:
George Carlin, or
Carlos Mencia.
It's not offensive, it's descriptive.
It's a medical condition.
No judgement, it could have happened to any of us.
What's not so understandable is when people with full functionality and control.
Do stupid things that even a retard would know better about.
Guys. Most people use the word “Retarded” just to get a rise out of people. If you don’t give the word any power, it won’t have any power over you.
