DATED•MEDICINE a person who is physically deformed and has a mental disability because of congenital thyroid deficiency."Fairly certain calling someone a cretin falls under the existing rules, tbf. Yes, I was pretty much running with 1. 1. If you want to crack on with this cretinous campaign though, you crack on. If it's established that the term's use is not acceptable, I'll simply refrain from using it. I'm not actually that wedded to it, but I find it useful in the meantime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, yet you've pretty much admitted that you're aware of the second meaning, which holes your own argument and gives away what type of person you are, versus the type of person you pretend to be. Crack on with the holier than thou attitude, but you've outed yourself as someone happy to use words with vile meanings. And if it's established that the use is not acceptable, I'd imagine you'll be facing a warning for it. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are somewhat bizarrely behind the paywall on our official site, considering it was a closed door game which wasn't mentioned at all by us I find it odd that they're on there at all and that they're only available to subscribers. Also, the highlights feature both Caldwell and one of your coaching staff blocking out the action at either end. Both our goals came from us dispossessing your players (first one the #5 , second one Gomis) about 25 yards from your goal, both your goals came from crosses, the first one headed in by Connolly who outjumped McGinty who's about a foot taller than him, second one looked as if two of our defenders got in each other's way and the #9 had all day to take a touch and finish.

You're hiding behind the modern meaning of a word in order to get around forum rules regarding mocking mental illness.

If you wanted to call me an idiot, you would have. You chose cretin, knowing the exact provenance of the word. After all, you're always at great pains to point out how superior you are to everyone else. So, no. Not buying the wide eyed "I was using it in the generalised meaning of idiot" claims. Horrible little individual. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
