That's what I was saying, yes. Its been happening for years. Is it annoying? Yeah, its annoying. Its nothing new though, and you do it too. Everyone does it. http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/dumb
Dumb means you can't speak.

Huh. That somewhat reminds me to a video about random facts i watched a few mothns ago. The video said something among the lines of "the words moron, imbecile and idiot were actual medical terms, used to classify your IQ level."

They were indeed.  In fact, those words were used almost exclusively medically until fairly recently in history.  Making reading old medical notes fun when you see quotes such as "It is my belief, as a doctor, that this patient is a moron".

And people with Down Syndrome were referred to as "Mongolian idiots". That's messed up. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
