[QUOTE=milkandcooki;44628472] by going "who cares??? they're just wordS LOL grow a thicker skin!" you're contributing to the problem. these are terrible words, and your life won't suddenly end or become worse if you aren't allowed to say "nigger" to your friends in casual conversation anymore. use another word, there's at least a quarter of a million of million that [I]aren't[/I] slurs with hundreds of years of terrible history behind them. [/QUOTE] conversely though no ones life ended or suddenly became worse because of a double entendre made on a car show and you cant really argue that he should have used another word because the word was literally the joke now I mean if there was clear malice in his words that would be a different story and I would totally agree, but the way clarkson usually commentates on the specials basically consists of him making fun of the people or place that the special takes place in, and then saying: "but no seriously" during the wrap up, and talking about how awesome the people/place were/was

[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;44628959]but hes actually funny[/QUOTE] Hardly, it's just the most basic satirizetion of milk's dumb posts [editline]23rd April 2014[/editline] Even if I agree with milk he just has such a stupid way of presenting his points I'm inclined to not agree
This is one of those occasions where I like that these arguments are happening through keyboards as opposed to all of you actually saying these things and wasting all that precious air on the most pointless and downright idiotic argument I've seen for quite a while. I am a little upset that this four-page thread is taking up data on a hard drive somewhere though, so you guys should probably just stop arguing seriously about the one thing in society that is [I]specifically[/I] not meant to be taken seriously: [B][U]A Joke.[/U][/B]
[QUOTE=NoDachi;44622331]consider yourself educated then it comes from the phrase slopehead as a racial slur for the appearance of people from south east asia.[/QUOTE] u wot m8 I'm from southeast asia and I have NEVER heard that term in my life.
[QUOTE=Headhumpy;44631777]u wot m8 I'm from southeast asia and I have NEVER heard that term in my life.[/QUOTE] its a term white people use as a derogative popular during the vietnam war and with all the asian immigrants in Australia just like I haven't really know any south east asian derogatives directed at westerners, but I'm sure they exist
