Standing for 5-9 hours outside in a cold, watching a shiny ball drop for 10 seconds? Pretty primal way of entertainment Id say.

And, freedom of speech bud, I say what I want.

Who knew that retarded is on the banned list now? That seems pretty retarded.

As for Times Square being virtual this year, who thought otherwise?

What do you expect... this is one of the most crowded events in the city most years, and you've got people standing and standing shoulder-to-shoulder for hours. Maybe it's not that unsafe, really, since it's outside, but I can understand how it's not worth the risk. If they didn't cancel it, I wouldn't be surprised if a record crowd turned up to shoo out 2020. Even without the usual tourists.

I'm not crying over it though. There are much better ways to ring in the new year. It's too bad for those who were looking forward to it...

Not cool. It's not okay to call someone that. Maybe spend some time volunteering around people with mental disabilities. Learn, grow, and help others not as blessed as you.

Yes, the "r" word is a big no no now among the retarded woke types. I use it all the time with no remorse. I will not be told what words to use or how to use then. Retarded is a legit word in the English language.
