    What part of my entirely English sentence gave you the impression I was speaking Greek? Should we go back to PIE roots to find some more hidden bigotry?

      The word doesn’t mean anything in English. I assumed you were speaking Greek because otherwise you’d be babbling like a baby.

      Oh, well, it is a slur against disabled people in some dialects of English, I suppose.
