Huh school me. wot's wrong with using the word gypped?
"Gypped" is roughly equivalent to "jewed", except you feel that you've been cheated by a gypsy instead of a Jew. More of an ethnic slur than a racial slur, but if you happen to use it in front of someone who's proud of their gypsy roots, they'll probably be offended.

Ugh...so farking tired of this congestion... over 4 weeks and counting.

2 rounds of antibiotics...no help other than to keep it from being full blown bronchitis which is common for me.

z-pak, decongestants, my regular allergy meds, doubling my Advair... using nebulizer.

Every time I think it's going away it rears it's ugly head and bites me in the ...lungs again.

Woke up in the middle of the night coughing so hard I got up ...walked into the bathroom and vomited Whee

Fark this...leave me the fark alone...go the fark away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But what if your last name is of German descent and when you break it down as a nick-name it becomes a racial slur against another group of people; but you have been called this name all your life; before PC came into vogue - so what do you do - no longer use the nick-name - I don't think so - people need to be a little more lenient regarding being so PC - I have friends who are Jewish - and we joke around all the time - they kid me about being my last name (oh you have no clue laugh out loud ) and I kid them back oy vey you are meshuggah - a few sandwiches short of a picnic Crazy

Sincerely,
Spic (shortened from the real last name) hey Spic come here wanna talk to ya Smilie

Have you tried Mucinx to clear your lungs at this point? Just the regular type in the blue box, as there are so many types of this on the shelf. Keep your windows closed and only use the A/C and if the trees are pollinating out there, come in and remove your clothing in a place like your laundry room and put the clothes into a separate laundry basket - then take a shower - you don't want the pollen filtering through your home.

I've gone through this with my son who gets bronchitis all the time; and is recovering from the flu that he had for over 7 days; I gave him the same advice. He is allergic to so much, and this is a way to keep the pollutants down inside your home. Also, don't leave your vehicle windows down; you are just filling up the vehicle with pollen; I see it all over my while vehicle right now Yucky

I worked with a guy with a last name that started with "Ju" a couple of years ago. One day another coworker called him over the two-way radio, yelling "Hey Jew boy you got your radio on?"

I guess there were a couple of people from upper management in an office with a radio who heard it. The guy that said it got called in for a few discussions and it was suggested he be more careful in choosing his words over the radio. I don't think he got in any serious trouble for it though. laugh out loud

Exactly what I'm talking about; innocent, innocuous, but other people will take it completely of of context. What's wrong with saying "hey Ju Boy you got your radio on?" Same as I'm saying above; and watch what you say to children; they are parrots for sure Bigeye
