    That’s not what saying a “hard R” means.

      I think it is a reference joke to when YouTuber Linus from linus tech tips expressed remorse for having formerly used the “hard R” during a podcast, mistaking it for the word “retarded”. The video of it, including the panic and awkward clarification that ensued, went viral on tech circles as cringe inducing amusement and proof of Linus’s social ineptitude.

        You’re probably right, but that’s sort of a niche reference that I wouldn’t expect everyone to grok.

          when Linus says he dropped his fair share Luke looks like he’s being punched by a ghost

        I caught the LTT joke but yeah it’s a niche reference to have in the post title.

      I came here to say the same thing. I’m against ableism as much as the next guy but let’s be real about what the ‘hard R’ is.
