Would you prefer "dumb fuck"?

That's like placing an absolute value on language, when we know it is 
all in how you interpret it - the context of *anything* is the most 
important component.  Making fun of "fat chicks" or "skinny geeks" or 
any other stereotype is just wrong, even if it is "just electrons on a 
disk."  Mein Kampf was just words on a page, and look what that led to.  
6 million dead ain't chump change.
