cretin



word of the day: CRETIN

French crétin [...] "deformed and mentally retarded person found in certain Alpine valleys" < Vulgar Latin christiânus 'Christian'
that's right, folks. the word CRETIN is the word CHRISTIAN.

and it means a "deformed and mentally retarded person found in certain Alpine valleys". an alpine-billy!
