Eventually it leads to folks adding 'I' and 'S', which leads to a universal legal battle between Apple and our favourite Time Lord.

Of course, The Doctor's lawyers can always retroactively go back in time to file appropriate copyright and patent papers just to show up limited Apple's 3-dimensional thinking.

Some of the nicest people I know are retarded. My cousin
Mike (Down's syndrome) is everybody's friend. He doesn't
have a mean bone in his body.

There was a group home close to my house when I lived in
Iowa City. I became friends with some of the residents, and
found out that one of them was the son of a good friend of
my father-in-law. Mark always had a wave and a smile when he
pedaled past my house on his three-wheeled cycle. I just
have to adjust my expectations of how people act around me.

I think that the use of the word "retard" to describe people
who we disagree with shows a lack of willingness to find the
right word to describe the targeted behavior. It is just
pure laziness, and offends people who don't deserve the
ridicule.

If this describes you, please try again.
