In my day if we got hurt we rubbed dirt on it.
If we were called names we either defended our honor or realized that sticks and stones may break our bones, but names will NEVER hurt us.
Dude, I went to 12 different public schools.

Never.
Especially if the word was said with love.
I thought we could do the guy thing here: punch each other on the shoulder, spit, swear, and laugh at things by putting them in perspective. But you demand to take it down the serious road.

So I ask you:
Do you think your grandma called you that out of racism? Or love?
Doesn't matter, you missed my point(s).
* Old people don't have filters.
* Times were different then than now and the language used.
* Racism is Racism no matter how you paint it.
I've stated on these boards before that I believe everyone is at least a little bit racist.
I'm of the opinion that because we are animals that evolved over time where being wary of those that are different is a genetically hard coded survival tactic, we discriminate by default and it takes work to overcome that.
Seriously though... I had to f*ck with you, you threw the "I" word out there... that's just begging to grab my theatrical ire.
Just so you know, you're highly unlikely to actually piss me off. If I'm arguing with you, I'm just arguing with you for the sake of arguing, because I do that. I can be an unapologetic azzhole.
