    “Fucking” is great, how could it be an insult like “fuck you”? Perhaps a word can have multiple meanings. While thinking about it, I have actually never heard anyone say retard to someone who is a handicapped person. Only as a insult to assholes.

      It’s like hysterical, though yes it was at one time an umbrella term for some pretty crazy stuff is also a word with meaning and no actual diagnosis behind it.
