Join in! Whether you are like me, taking a relaxed approach to racial slurs because I’m blessed with a sense of humor, or are a full blown racist asshole, let’s discuss the funniest sounding or creative racial slurs you’ve feasted upon throughout life!
For instance, an old friend of mine told me that his southern brother calls black folk, get this.. Shabbaby! I dunno bout y’all, but I sure as fuck never heard that term before OR after!
My favorite ones are currently peckerwood, graymeat (thanks Stephen King), dragon lady, zip head, night fighter, and muck~shovelimg mick. Which means ethnic slurs are also acceptable here. You hear that, wop? Okay, wetbacks and Whitbreads, let’s go!
