I would add that it's considered quite offensive. "Retard" was used in a derogatory way for somebody physically and/or intellectually handicapped, short for "retarded". To retard something is to slow it, so it implies that the handicapped person is slower to develop than fully abled people. It implies they are lesser than us. I would NEVER say that Stephen Hawking was lesser than me. Or a wheelchair athlete.
So of course, to be offensive to even more people is to call a typically abled person "retarded" or "retard" because it is not only offensive to the people being called "Retard", but also to the intellectually/physically challenged people that the word used to refer to.
"Retard alert" basically means "watch out, there's a 'retarded' person coming"
Don't say it! It's offensive!!
