    I wonder if they get as offended when people use other outdated medical terms like idiot and imbecile.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

            At least we’ll always have Fred Rogers.

              dude, right? we got lucky there; I was amazed to learn that he was a lifelong christian and preacher, and never let that cloud his message of kindness and humility he presented publicly. very christ-like, unlike so many christians.
