should we remove asperger's jokes y/n
#10
I'll also say "sperged out," as funny-sounding as it was (partly because it makes me think of Sperg from The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy) really shouldn't fly for the same reasons I hate throwing all this Asperger's stuff under the "ableist" umbrella.

Again, it implies something derogatory in that someone with Asperger's is inherently disabled. Though in this case it's intended as an insult instead of unintentionally one.
