@Demolishun This
-
@linuxxx pretty sure you're not intellectually challenged :p
-
@RememberMe Maybe this saying has a different meaning then? I mean this as having to use my brain a lot in complex but very interesting material.
-
@linuxxx indeed. It's an euphemism. https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/...,)%20Of%20low%20intelligence%3B%20stupid.
-
@linuxxx Lol, do you mean "intellectually stimulated". Yes, you can read "intellectually challenged" both ways.
-
@linuxxx
“X-challenged” = “Fails at X”
Therefore:
“Vertically challenged” = short
“Intellectually challenged” = idiot -
@RememberMe Oh yeah I did not mean that 😅
-
@Root @Demolishun Yeah got it now. Not sure how to properly describe this but I guess you get what I mean :)
-
@linuxxx Its perfectly okay to be linguistically challenged.
-
@Root Is challenged the new retarded?
-
@Demolishun I get that its a joke but I think this is more of a literal translation thing as literally translating this from English to Dutch would get the meaning that I meant :)
-
@Demolishun The new retarded is “minimally exceptional”. Everything must sound varying degrees of positive because negatives might hurt someone’s feelings.
Fucking hell. -
@Root emotionally challenged, eh? 🤔
-
@iiii I think I’m emotional challenged. I don’t really understand them, and don’t really have them either.
-
@Root same. Ten years ago I was pretty sure I understand how people work. Now I'm sure I understand Jack shit about these alien lifeforms. 😒
