I apologize for using hurtful language, though you're right, I wasn't intending to be insulting when I used it. In respect to the original meaning of the word "lame", though I was aware of the ableist connotations and original meaning of the word, the reason I didn't think of it was primarily due to the fact that I have never in my life referred to a disabled person as "lame". I do understand where you're coming from, however; I feel the same way about people using the word "gay" to mean something stupid. In retrospect, I should have been more considerate in my word choice.
...also, I was still kind of drunk when I replied. So there's also that. ;P
