[Tam]

There's a track on their album called 'let's get retarded'. What on earth is that supposed to mean???

[sft42]

God alone knows....but the definition of retard is to hinder or block...let's all hope that happens to their career then eh?

I've looked up the lyrics to this song on the web, and they seem to be using 'retarded' to mean 'stupid' (a deeply offensive usage, in my opinion). It looks to be a comment on dumbing down, but I'm not sure from the lyrics whether or not it's meant to be ironic.
