Deacon
Slang word for a person of non-specific mental and/or physical disability, or an insult. Unsubstantiated claims about a local spacker called Alan Deacon (who alledgedly screamed things about turtles during the night) gave us this short-lived insult, and for a while the commonly used tongue-in-lower-lip spaz impression was known as 'doing a Deacon'.
