Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

So I just got back from my Human Resources course at college. Today we learned that it is no longer considered politically correct to refer to a person with a disability as handicapped or disabled, as those are now considered offensive terms. Instead we are to refer to them as "peoples with accessibility issues."

Also, when I went to the washroom and opened a stall door, I saw a naked midget dancing in the toilet bowl. For a second I thought I was having some sort of twisted Dwarf Fort hallucination, but no, there was a dancing midget in the toilet.

I think we should go back to 'cripples' and... what's a corresponding word for crazy people?

(And who was that midget?)

I honestly have no idea. It was the weirdest encounter I've ever had. I feel like someone, somewhere lost a major bet though.

Yup, but apparently it's the other way around in each other country.

Not here it ain't. I think? I can't honestly remember anything from school.

But then again we're already a Belgian district, apparently.

Naah, has to seem antiquated and insulting, yet be an accurate description for most mental illnesses.

I agree... being a Bay12 forumite is a good word to describe someone with a mental illness.

Let me see... antiquated words to describe crazy people? Loons, Lunatics, Psychos, mad, crazed, cuckoo, Maniac.

I went looking for some antiquated insults, and found this list on Wikipedia.

Some of them are pretty WTF worthy as well.

N+ is {0,1,2,3,...} here, with N*+ being {1,2,3,...}
Edit : don't really need the +, but you get my meaning.
