Can someone tell me what "Short Bus" refers to, I see it in Detale's sig and you are referring to it.

Is it an American thing, what does it mean.

Congrats, boss.

Yes it is an uniquely American expression .
Shorter buses are typically used for "Special Education" (i.e., the mentally handicapped) students who are typically educated in different facilities.
So "short bus" has evolved into a derogatory term for the mentally challenged(i.e. Detale).

So a global moderator has a "derogatory term for the mentally challenged" as his signature. I'm not tying to win any popularity contests by pointing out that I think that's appalling.

Many TTC members had this sig some months ago, the idea was to identify ourself as proud retards, but Detale decided to butchered my artwork and create a custom title to stand above us all :(

i must agree with you on that, but many things aren't nearly politically correct on the interweb, calling people fags or retards seem widely accepted

Oh sorry, I didn't realise that.

It's ok to use "derogatory term for the mentally challenged" as a source of "amusement" then. I thought we were still human beings dealing with other human beings.

Having said that, if that's the way people behave in real life why would I expect them to behave any differently on an internet forum.

Forgive me for being old fashioned but it still seems wrong to me.
