Steve, you have to get some smarts here. 1) If you say somebody is crazy, mentally retarded or otherwise lacking in mental capacity it is completely okay if you use it as a put-down, that is to say, you just say it to insult the other person, you actually don't mean it literally. But, if you say it about a person, when it is actually true, or even might be true, there is a chance that it is actually literally the case, if you actually mean it, not as an insult or put-down, even if you might have a sense of compassion toward this person, then it is an inexcusable sin, that cannot be forgiven. 2) It's okay to say anything negative, derogatory, insulting, as long as it's about Barry, at least in the eyes of Judy and her gang. It's like that old Arab proverb, 'Beat your wife daily, if you don't know why, she knows it'. Substitute wife here with Barry.
