Is Everyone Retarded?

Why does everyone here seem to have the need to use the word retarded?

Do any of you know an actuall retarded person or have one in your immediate family? You think it’s a fucking joke?

You lame asses toss word like Retard, Fucktard and it’s really fucking OLD!

Get some originality and brains.

I’m so sick of these kinds of posts. How everyone else in someones gym is just a retarded f’in moron.

What pleasure do you derive from your pedastal, in crushing such peons below? Are they all 140 lb skinny fucks doing endless curls or are they big guys using only partial ROM? Or heaven forbid were they doing something other than an oly lift? Different rep scheme other than 10x3 or 5x5?

Lift your weights. Eat your food and qyuit worrying about the other guy. If they want advice they’ll ask. Not everyone has your goals in the weightroom, and that should not be held against them.

Shut up and lift

I’m so floored by this intelligent response.

Do you know anyone or care for anyone with down syndrome? You show us what your really about here. You must be a pre-pubecent teenager.

Congrats on your high level of stupidity.

Stop trying to tell the world how to act, then you won’t be dissapointed.

Or, you would isolate yourself from people, either way…you will be silent.

man you have to be kidding me… if you know someone with down syndrome then good for you … if you are taking care of someone with down syndrome even better… but you shouldnt take stuff so personaly… no one was talking about you or you fam. you should grow up and not think his coment is about you im sure he didnt know about you issue and wounldnt care CAUSE ITS JUST A SAYING

I never hand out advice unless I’m asked, and I never use the words “you should…”

Let it slide, caring about what other people do causes stress.

Very true. Lifting is getting like politics…I don’t like talking about either of them to any of buddies. It just causes arguments, and then you end up thinking, “Damn this guy is ignorant”. But then they probably think I’m a pompous ass anyway. So why bother. I’d rather argue about baseball or something.

Lift good and results will tell your tale.

Allright. I’ll come out and say yeah, I’m taking it wrong. Jets are cooled.

So what you’re saying is that as long as I’m not talking about your family members I can use racial slurs and expect no one to be offended?

I’ll say if your going to act on everything that offends you, your not going to have alot of time to do the things you want to do…

Face it, people suck…they have alwase sucked, and nothing anyone here can do will make people not suck…

So the only thing you can do, if you wish to be a happy person, is drive on…

unless some one is saying it to you and meaning it as a bad thing… why stress your self out over “WORDS” other ppl use… life is too short and full of lots of real issues to stress out about… im sure that person was just using a word… if you are gonna let words offend you for no reson i just think that is dumb… take a joke ppl… those 2 went back and forth over nothing… now thats retarted lol (see a joke) i mean if you let the little things bug you then i do feel bad for you… -ZEN- baby

I agree, as an individual if I decide to get uptight about every little thing then I’m leading a pretty fruitless life. I do like a good rant every now and then, but as many said earlier in this thread I’ll just ignore the situation and let my actions speak.

However, regarding your earlier statment and my response…we can choose to ignore things as an individual, but we also must accept the fact that we are members of a society with norms and rules. It is not socially acceptable to use slurs to refer to people in any manner. I hate the “surreal life” on VH1, but did happen to see the episode where the “celebreties” had a bowling competition with a group of downs syndrome bowlers. One of the kids kept trash talking until someone let fly with the “retard” statement in front of EVERYONE. It wasn’t just a “word” or harmless saying at that point.

Well, I’ve already dedicated more time to this than it deserved, so enjoy.

Nope, Jets are pretty good - they just need a QB. Defense is one of the best in the NFL and they have a solid running game. Watch, they’ll still win another 6 or so games even with VInny or Brooks Bollinger at QB.

Remember, they had the Steelers beat TWICE in the playoffs, but the PK let them down.

And ya, I got the joke :slight_smile:

What’s worse is guys who think the same way. And I’m not 100%, but I believe that M&F Hers went out of business. . .

I’m getting close to not talking to anyone about it, especially my girlfriend. She loves working out and eating right, but she hates taking my advice. I’ll give her advice and get her on the right track but the SECOND someone else gives her an opinion i am totally wrong. Lifing heavy… Its IMPOSSIBLE to gain size on a calorie deficient diet (she think her legs are getting bigger, yet hasnt gained a pound in a year)… high intensity cardio. Her arguments are always referrenced to a trainer she talked to ONCE or an article is M&F Hers.

Her - “But i heard low intensity cardio burns more fat”

Me - “But you want to burn total calories, what does it matter if you burn 80% fat but only 100 calories in an hour?”

Her - “But i read that in muscle and fitness Hers, which is geared towards women.”

me - “why do you even ask me?”[/quote]

Nope…they just put out a new magazine last month… which I had to buy for my girl.

Its frustrating because I have made some MAJOR changes in my physique, and I think that shows that I at least have some knowledge. Then she reads ONE THING in a magazine,or hears ONE THING from a trainer, and everything I say is null and void.

Probably my pet peeve is diet and size.

her - “I don’t want my legs to get all big!”

Me- “Thats impossible on a restricted calorie diet, if anything they will get smaller”

her - “For a guy, women gain size differently than men, we have to train and eat different because we store fat different”

Me- “But…calories…size…bangs head on wall
