spaz (plural spazzes)
(slang, pejorative, offensive) A stupid person.
(slang, pejorative, offensive) A hyperactive person.
(slang, pejorative, offensive) An incompetent person.
(slang, pejorative, offensive) A tantrum, a fit.
In addition to being insulting to the target, the term itself is offensive to some due to associations with disability (especially cerebral palsy in the UK); compare retard, tard.
Offensiveness differs between the UK and the US: it is quite offensive in the UK, while generally mildly offensive or inoffensive in the US.
It is most widely used as a playground term of abuse, both of people with disabilities and children generally. Among adults, particularly in the United States, it can be seen as gentle ribbing or self-deprecation, as in the Tiger Woods quote, but can cause offense, and is recommended against in public
В общем, олигофрен, имбецил итодэ.
