ISN'T THIS PERFECT?
Person A: That’s lame.
Person B: I’d prefer if you didn’t say “lame,” I find it ablist.
Person A: Whoops, I am sorry! I meant no harm, but I won’t say it in the future.
Person B: Thanks, I appreciate that.

OR

Person A: That’s lame.
Person B: Yeah, totally lame!
Person A: Neither of us finds this terminology offensive!
Person B: Though if someone else told us that they did find it hurtful, we would apologize for hurting them and be conscious of our language in the future!
