Your Retarded Brother

Erica and I often have game nights with our friends, Tom & Amy. We play about once a week, and as you might guess, we get tired of playing the same old games all of the time. We were very bored one night, so Erica raided the RA closet in our building to see if they had any games to play. They had an old copy of "Scruples" -- a game of trying to predict how other players will respond to various ethical questions. Most of the questions were things like "If you found $200 in cash, would you return it?" and "If you knew that you could get away with a crime that would better your family, would you do it?" We had a lot of fun with the game, and then we came upon the following question:



We found the term "your retarded brother" quite out of date. We had to note the political incorrectness of the time (the game was made in 1986). It was nice to see that we've progressed a bit in terms of inclusion even in something as banal as board games.
