okay, im in a school which is populated by a wide range of races. im not a racist, but i have friends who use the n word a lot. Im scared i might say it one day while thinking something else, and trust me, if that happens id be killed.is there any way to avoid this?

Freudulian slips scare me

listen...I had the same thing at my high school. And I would say it sometimes, but what you need to do is not end it in "-er" end it in "-a". That subtle difference can make a big difference. Plus if you do say make sure it is in good humor and not a derogatory statement.

You can learn not to use it at an inapropiate time just like many people say "big" rather than "fat" in the presence of obese people whom they wish to remain on good terms with. Or the same way I swear less infront of my parents. Its all about engineering your volcabulary to suit the situation. I'm sure you do this already in various ways, so learning not to say nigger when theres a black fellow about should come easily enough if you just use your head.
-
I'm curious though, under what circumstances do you use the word?I used to use it quite freely in my old city (not with malicious intent, most in refferneces to pop culture), where my whole community and all my friends were white, and you dont really think about it much in an all-white community, but now I live in a very multicultural city and thus my use of such words has plummeted (I have no desire to offend anyone afterall). Heh when I went down to my old city I was struck to hear my buddies say "paki" like it was the most natural thing in the world! made me realise how different your mannerisms come after being taken out of single-race enviroments.But you? If you live in an a multi-racial enviroment why did you start to use such words casually? Not judging you, just wondering.
-
I say it a bit, but always with the -a except when I'm intentionally trying to be offensively funny. Never really had a problem with it, but nobody ever takes me seriously anyway, they all know I'm a little kitty cat.Oh, and Owain. I have the exact same scarf as you! Or atleast one very very VERY similar!

A sure enough sign that you are from among this world's great fellows :smirk:

In reply to: A sure enough sign that you are from among this world's great fellows I tend to disagree there....I have been in negative temps before, but scarfs yeah....must be a UK thing.

And Republic of Ireland thing it seems....though me and an Irish friend of mine we're discussing our two nations earlier, how they are very similar in many ways. Except Irishmen dont know what a condom is hehe
-
damn foreigners...when will you learn to eat more red meat and kill and go against anyone who is not like you...LOLI am not a fan of scarfs...
-
Until recently, eating red meet in Britain was a dangerous enterprise (MCD)As for killing people heh, we're right in there with you yanks! It is because you are not into scarfs that you will never be a god among men
-
I am a god among gods though...So I am quite happy.
-
A scarfless god is like a man without his member.
-
yeah yeah bring it stick boy...hahahahaI got body size to keep me warm, and not fat....
-
a god is a person with no scarf?
get a license, start your own cult, the Walkens, then you can have girls sacrafice themselves on your dick.
tax free riches, maybe some day we can argue about you being right or wrong on A2A. -
stick boy? I'll show you stick my dear fellow.
-
MMMUUUUHAHAHAHAHAlol chance...yeah the sacrificial sex ceremony....The cult I am in is called life...I prefer not to brainwash people into beliefs.But to be specific, we are not gods, just mean among men
