Retard

People who drive 10+ miles under the speed limit even though the speed sign is clearly shown.

People who text and drive.

Republican candidates after 1930.

People who have a perfectly functioning brain yet choose to be self entitled and ignorant.
Friend1: Why is the person in front of us not following the speed limit?They have plenty of room to go faster.

Friend2: Probably just some retard on their phone.

They say you can't fix a retard, but at least anyone who has the anti-furry flag as their profile pic makes it easier to identify one.

retard maxxing

a mindset of deliberately rejecting overthinking and excessive self-analysis, choosing instead to live simply, act instinctively, and use one’s mind only for practical tasks rather than self-doubt or rumination.
After years of overthinking every decision, he finally started retard maxxing - just doing what needed to be done and not listening to the noise in his head.

Retarder

A retarder is a device used to augment or replace some of the functions of primary friction-based braking systems, usually on heavy vehicles. Retarders serve to slow vehicles, or maintain a steady speed while traveling down a hill, and help prevent the vehicle from "running away" by accelerating down the hill. They are not usually capable of bringing vehicles to a standstill, as their effectiveness diminishes as vehicle speed lowers. They are usually used as an additional "assistance" to slow vehicles, with the final braking done by a conventional friction braking system. As the friction brake will be used less, particularly at higher speeds, their service life is increased, and since in those vehicles the brakes are air-actuated helps to conserve air pressure too.

Friction-based braking systems are susceptible to "brake fade" when used extensively for continuous periods, which can be dangerous if braking performance drops below what is required to stop the vehicle – for instance if a truck or bus is descending a long decline. For this reason, such heavy vehicles are frequently fitted with a supplementary system that is not friction-based.

Retarders are not restricted to road motor vehicles, but may also be used in railway systems. The British prototype Advanced Passenger Train (APT) used hydraulic retarders to allow the high-speed train to stop in the same distance as standard lower speed trains, as a pure friction-based system was not viable.
The truck used the retarder while going down the hill.
