You're George R.R. Martin?

There ya go, Jack.



It’s not that easy for me to smile for the camera. But I suppose it’s easier when I’m homaging the first shot of my favorite film of all time. Or subconsciously channeling a certain famous electronica musician I'm only now starting to enjoy.

Also, Hail Tritanopia.

Happy to see you’re still bearding it. Also, love the hat thang. Is that a feather?

Btw, your face expression is like it’s saying:

Yep. Came from a molting domestic goose I found at a petting zoo in Door County last July.

And to think that when I was doing it, I was thinking Alexander DeLarge (because the slasher smile is the closest thing to a normal smile I can do naturally AND on cue) and after I posted it, I was thinking Richard D. James. But I LOVE it that you interpreted it as a "come hither" grin.

And I fully intend to keep the beard until the day I die. Except, maybe if, Jah forbid, I have to do chemo and the radiation causes it to fall out.

Zilla, love the evil Spock eyebrows!

Good. I’ve never been able to understand why any man would dispose of a perfectly full beard. Looks good, Rye

Tard.  

Is that a Dr Who joke?

No. Sadly it's a shortened version of retard. People could have picked a better word than that one. And as usual, it'll get laughed off or downplayed so that it looks innocent. Sorry, not sorry but no one uses that word unless they mean it in a derogatory manner.

I have a child with mental retardation. It isn't funny. Ever.

We hear ya loud and clear Jood.

Sadly, the world colloquialises shit like this into our lexicon.

There are young kids out there saying it but are not trying to be derogatory. Many don't even know its origins.
I s'pose, like many things, it's about intent.

I call my mates dumb wogs all the time, they laugh it off

It's like calling Min an old fart! Ok, bad example....

Fair point. However, the only way we can get rid of the stereotype is to stop using words like that. After all, who do you think the younger generation learns from?

We know better and should strive to be better.

Wife #3 couldn't stand it, she had to slap them down. When she could catch me.

I think you might be a little to close to the issue to have perspective when it comes to any version of the word retardation. It's coming off as a little too  PC.
