Also, I never understood what the proper etiquette is for citing rap songs that use "nigger" or "nigga". For example, you see a woman who is obviously looking for a rich guy. You turn to your friends and say, "I ain't sayin' she's a gold digga, but she ain't messin' with no broke nigga". Does anyone have a right to be offended (other than the gold digger) ?


You could change it to "broke bro" like they did for Glee :)

If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

That's nothing that new. I read Sawyer and Huck Finn when I was like 10, and it was definitely water - 04/01/2011 07:45:07 PM 922 Views

There's a difference between a kids' version and a normal version with a censored word, though. *NM* - 04/01/2011 11:19:26 PM 408 Views
Wouldn't the "kids' versions" ALREADY have that word excised? *NM* - 04/01/2011 11:53:09 PM 421 Views
Presumably, yes. *NM* - 05/01/2011 06:28:47 PM 420 Views
Exactly. *NM* - 05/01/2011 01:04:16 AM 508 Views
That is just wrong. - 04/01/2011 08:00:57 PM 964 Views
I agree. - 04/01/2011 09:12:53 PM 1023 Views
my gut says it wrong but my brain says it is OK - 04/01/2011 09:11:00 PM 1116 Views
No, the goal of the book (or one of them) was to illustrate authentic dialogue. Your brain sucks. - 04/01/2011 11:49:13 PM 930 Views
I hate it when I agree with you - 05/01/2011 12:09:37 AM 897 Views
yes but you are disagreeing with me so it is a wash *NM* - 05/01/2011 04:09:54 PM 401 Views
I see logic isn't your strong point. - 05/01/2011 04:09:27 PM 944 Views

it still boils down to the fact that most teachers will not use a book with word nigger in it - 08/01/2011 02:55:29 AM 827 Views

It's probably a bad idea - 04/01/2011 11:06:02 PM 847 Views
Heh. - 04/01/2011 11:26:00 PM 888 Views
Re: It's probably a bad idea - 04/01/2011 11:51:31 PM 964 Views
Just because it's the point doesn't mean I have to like it. *NM* - 05/01/2011 04:44:10 AM 394 Views
Reacting to "nigger" like that makes the word more hurtful. - 05/01/2011 03:26:35 AM 1001 Views
