  • Idiot is a pretty offensive term based on people with learning disabilities having a particularly low mental age, it really shouldn't just be banded around now that it's meaning in general language has changed somewhat. Just like people saying belm as a general insult that has changed in meaning and context from it's beginnings, especially as it was a little known word to begin with most people will be unaware of it's beginings. Belm when used on here is much like cunt being used as a term of endearment, words are not offensive in and of themselves, the usage and context might make them so. You bunch of utter jeezheads.

    but then he's only really kicked up a proper fuss about it because he saw a glimmer of an opportunity to try and get shot of some of the (rapidly growing pool of) people with whom he constantly butts heads with anyways.
