retarded Mug
A savage word for "stupid", "dumb", "idiotic", and/or "moronic". It has quite a history. It originated from the latin term "retard" which means "to slow down". It then lead to the FORMER medical term (which got phased out/replaced with "intellectual disability") "mental retardation" which meant an Intelligence Quotient (IQ) of 70 or lower. "Mental Retardation" was the noun that lead to the adjective "mentally retarded" which then lead to just simply "retarded". "Retarded" became a slang/derogatory term for "stupid" and politically correct people disliked it. That's why "mental retardation" got phased out in federal documents and alot of medical documents. Terms like "idiot" and "moron" have a similar history as "retarded". With such a history, politically correct people often dislike it when people use the word "retarded" both formally (when referring to someone with a low IQ level) and informally (when just referring to a stupid person who doesn't necessarily have a low IQ level). About 95% of the time when people use the term "retarded" they're using it INFORMALLY (when they just mean "stupid" but are not aiming/directing it at or referring to someone with a low level IQ). Politically correct people don't like this. Yet people who use the term "retarded" informally, aren't even trying to insult those with low IQ levels. This is fine. About 5% of the time when people say "retarded" they're talking about people with low IQ levels. They're jerks and this is unacceptable.

looks perfect!!! we loved it
I ordered 4 of your mugs -- and have received 3; hopefully, the 4th is on its way! So far, I've received "fame," "620," and "$" ... only needing "hulo." ...It might be a matter of me being patient, that the 4th mug is on its way. However, the 3 received SO far are all EXCEPTIONAL, in every way!!! Mark Moilanen
I love this mug with a burning passion in my heart, I have purchased 7 of these mugs and intend to continue. This mug has changed my life for the better
it's the best mug of the world !!!!!
wow! this mug is so thoughtful to giving to my wife!
The description tells nothing but facts. 5 stars instant
Your description is right on, except in 1989 I named my daughter Kallen Mikel (www.kallenmikel.com/original-art). I thought I made up the name, but apparently, it originated as a boy's name in Greek and Hebrew. I first found this out in 2001 when I was traveling to Finland. In the 'tube food' section in a big Finnish supermarket there it was, a royal blue tube of salmon paste with a blonde-haired boy named Kallen! So now I have discovered that there are many Kallen's of both sexes. I want to buy her a cup, but it has 'him' on it. Is there any way you can make that a unisex description for both sexes? Just askin'. Being a Barbara (Barbs) myself ... a 'cake eater' from Edina, MN I had to ask ... haha ;-)
Thank you for the mug. It arrived fast and exceeded my expectations.
