    hey I have a question: how does everyone feel about “fucktard”? is that acceptable? it’s not a direct insult to persons with developmental disabilities, but it does have a fairly specific connotation that could be useful in certain situations, plus it throws out an F-bomb to emphasize your anger.

    but if that’s too offensive for some folks I guess I can just keep using “fuckmouth”, if that’s easier on the ears.

      fuck mouth might be too insensitive for those of us who have or don’t have sex, so basically all of humanity actually.
