Words...

Sure, words are a big deal... Heard the saying? Sticks and bones can break your bones but words can't? Well before i begin, i want to let you all know that i DO know that words can really hurt a person before a horde of non-forgiving people that keep harping that words are the most powerful tool or whatever thing sends me to court and for counselling.

Now the topic now i'm going to talk about are about nasty words. Come on, what else can i talk about? nice words? And no, i'm not teaching u all dirty words, i'm not like u guys... anyways, have u ever noticed how people are just so sensitive over words? like that one word would just kill him and stuff? I'll give an example: N_gger. I'll leave the space to you but its a rude term to address an African American, since i also cannot use the word Blac_ to describe him.

To get things straight, i've been called many names, brown, yellow, chink (i don noe why i'm called that) and other assorted names that i will not say due to my policy of jeremism. Look, i don find any of this insulting to be true, maybe abit but not something i'll go murder someone over or sue a person. I do know that words are a very powerful tool, it can ease and prevent a war or create the outbreak. In fact, one of the most debated and most widely read book in the world (not harry wadsisname) the Bible says that the tougue is the hardest to train or something along that lines. Sometimes we can be too carried away with our words, we say stupid stuff like:

Hi, ur fat man!
Hi, did u just gain 10 pounds from the last time i met u?
Did ur face go through a blender or something? Good improvement!
U smell, take a bath bitch!

Even though many of this things are true but as being civilised people, we should speak ina less offensive way right? just re-phrasing it will do... (compare to the above respectively)

Hi, man u sure are going to last the winter!
Looks like someone is enjoying life!
U look better today, is it that shirt?
hey lets meet up later in about 30 mins time? meanwhile lets go back home and freshen up.

But to get back to the point. I don see the big point on the word: N_gger or call someone Blac_. Now its not that i use those terms to address people cause i don. I do know its rude and offensive, but i really don see the whole big point being so uptight about it. Look, its life, deal with it. Its a very touchy subject as African Americans were brough over as slaves but well heck, we chinese are not better off o.k? At least for me, i'll actually find it amusing if someone called me "hey yellow/brown kid". But lets look at this analytically, African Americans use the "N" word in many of the songs, if its so offensive then why do they even use it in their songs, to address their own "homies" etc? U know why? its no big deal isn't it? Really to me, if its so offensive, look at the Israelites / Jews. Do u think they find the holocaust funny? They talk about it grimly. I doubt they have songs about it and i really really see their pain when i visited Israel last year. Its not a good topic to start off with by the way if you are entertaining a Jew. As said again, I'm not being racist here or anything but i'm pointing out the difference between words that are suppose to be really painful. (i'm still not calling an African American a N_gger)

If only this world is more open and less stupidly obsessed with finding ways to pity themselves that they are inferior and the whole world are against them and calling them a term. Everyone has a term, even white people, i call them ang moh! If its really offensive, don use them in songs and ways to address ur friends cause its "cool".

Btw just a side note: can someone explain to me why indians find it offensive when people say N_gger or Blac_? Cause this refers to African American and not Indians.
