      Sorry but as an Australian who spends a lot of time in the US that’s a really, really, really retarded statement.

        While I do agree with your general sentiment, please consider not using “retarded” as a derogatory term. It is hurtful for people with intellectual disabilities and effectively acting as a slur against a minority group.
