Just noticed that this thread was still going on. Sorry to create a big
fuss. I wasn't trying to impose my white American male values on anyone. The
comment I was replying to was a direct, derogatory slur against someone, and
even if, as I recognized in my original post, it was meant it good spirits,
it seemed like the sort of thing it'd be nice not to do here.
