Issues with "derp"

[sqbr]

Can someone give me a link to a post about why "derp" is abelist? There's a discussion on my twitter list, and there's no way I can summarise it in 140 characters.

(nb I am also pretty sleepy, so don't feel up to explaining it here either. If you're interested, I'm sure someone else will post a link eventually)

I've read a rebuttal to the idea that it was started by South Park, but I can't find it. Unfortunately fwd didn't do an Ableist Word Profile for this one (I looked!).

Yes, I'm sure I saw that too but can't remember where! Oh well.
