You’re thinking of TARDIS, the time machine.

I’m glad the re-boot didnt call it the re-TARDIS.

For normal people, to be late to something.
For this guy, the R slur against those with learning disorders.
kiagam@lemmy.world 1 year ago
you know this is the internet and you are allowed to type whatever you want, right? let me show you: “retarded”

“whatever you want”… they wanted to be a respectful person.
Aermis@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Is saying the word retarded without calling some it disrespectful? Is it now a trigger word? I’m genuinely wondering. Because when we were growing up we used the word EVERYWHERE. It was as common as saying “fricken”

“IDGI, this person has the option to be the worst version of themselves. Why dont they choose to do that?!? Also why does noone want to be around me? Could it be that marinating my brains in a writhing compost of clapbacks and dunks is desensitizing me to my own dehumanizing? No. Clearly this is because woke.”

The word that airline computers hurl at their pilots just before landing
Quite rude if you ask me

I found a training thing that included the phrase “retard power” in an aviation context. The best part was the way it was enunciated. Not “ri-tard” like you do when it’s a verb, but long E ree-tard. I absolutely clipped it.

You might be surprised that your sprinkler system has a retard chamber. Also you can still order it under that name.

Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 1 year ago
That’s hilarious. Is it still in use or say it differently now?
I’m thinking about master>slave in tech. Or rapeseed became Canola. Or how we say Uranus differently.

afaik it is.

Printers used to refer to the page separation rollers as retard rollers.

Not everyone with learning disorders is retarded.
