Why would “fucking retarded” be questionable? Today’s clues had more to do with sex/non-sex (keep reading that thread–there was more clarification later–the sex/non-sex distinction may not hold up for long):

If you’d rather, though, we can include the whole laundry list of words like asshole, bitch, shithead, and so on. Other than not having a rule at all, I’m open to different ways to do this. Maybe we should just have a list of Bad Words you can’t direct at another poster, while of course retaining a rule against unspecified “hateful remarks,” to cover the rare case of one of those comments that makes you gasp but doesn’t use any of the proscribed words. How’s that?

Well yeah, but that’s just true. It doesn’t have any heat behind it regardless of how I read it.
