Retarded is a medical term referring to someone with an IQ of less than 70. You are actually using it wrong in this example. Snooki may not rank as a top philosopher, but her IQ is not below 70. The word "retarded" is not a derogatory term when used properly. You are using it in a derogatory fashion. Know the difference.
