So like, sayin' "ninjas" when it's clear what you really mean...

...is just as distasteful as using the real word. In fact, it might be more distasteful. Not striking me as clever or funny at all.

This isn't directed at anybody in particular, either. I just read it about six times from more than one poster and felt the need to comment.

I use every derivation of the word fuck on a near hourly basis. Unless I'm like, in public, or around certain family members who would rather not know how many different ways I know how to say that word.

and it's funny how dope dealers

don't like the word nigga because

"it's just another way the man keeps us down in da hood" lol

i espeacially like the ones that call their clientel 'nubian' qweens and kings

i had a sucka come to me one day and say they took a vote

and if i continued to use the word we would have to beef,

i kept my route and continue to use the word as is NIGGA.

Timmy pointed out the futility of my attempt here, so I was going to change to subject line and original post. Too late, I guess. lol

Yeah I had a white guy(who thinks he's my friend for some reason) try to use that term to address me. I almost punched him in the mouth after telling him I didn't like it over and over again. It's not clever, cool, or funny to me at all. I feel the same way about 'nigga' being used by fellow blacks.

Good music makes me happy.

Just recently Andrej Pejic tweeted "white n***a" apparently he got that from some YouTube video but he got put on blast for it. Then not too long ago here in Charlotte, a brother interrupted a newscast and yelled "I'm that n***a" and got arrested. People are nuts. I myself feel stupid saying it and should stop.

It's like something from a comedy, the way they're talking about some traumatic 'assault' and 'victim' support, while the VT shows a young guy doing something that's admittedly a bit silly but is hardly the crime of the century!

"I knew instantly something was about to go terribly wrong..." lol Good Lord! How do these people react when something really does go terribly wrong if their scale is so sensitively calibrated...??

It doesn't matter. Everybody says nigga. I just heard some Chinese boys calling each other nigga the other day.

The genie has been let out of the bottle so to speak.

Well, i hear people say it on a daily basis... i see 12, 13, 14 year olds using it. People that are 40, 50 etc.

It's almost like as normal as saying hi or bye to someone... it's sad it's being used in daily vocab.

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Exactly. You can't stop it. Like I said it would be just wasting time trying.

Exactly. You can't stop it. Like I said it would be just wasting time trying.

and why should it be stopped now

when for decades it only mattered to us.

as many of you who say it's SAD that it's used.

there are more of us who use it DAILY

and love it.

sometimes it sounds like you're sayin we're

some kind of lesser beins than those who

don't use the word and i beg to differ.

i don't call every man a nigga

even if they are blacker than me.

but that's in respect of their bounderies.

and if i respect the bouderies of others

i will have mine respected. i say whut i want

when i wanna say it. i do recognize the need to

speak differently in other forums, i've evolved

just like the kkk, i have other words that i can

use to convey a thought btu i'm still THAT NIGGA!!! lol

i am KING BAD!!!

The paradox is that N.W.A can't be praised for their impact on popular culture and nigga be condemed at the same time, isn't that hypocritical? Does the other " F " word get such a response or has it been nuetered like the " N " word is supposed to be?

that so called 'kills them' when someone else

says it but there's no outcry that the word

brings down it's peoples lol
