Where does 'cracker' and 'caveman' come from for white people? I have heard the term 'honkey' but don't know how that insults a white person?
I am not much better with the other lot...what the hell is a sand nigger or kike? I assume beaner is for the jewish?
Mind you our names for Greeks and Italians also confuse me.
How is a greek a 'wog' and an Italian a 'Ding'. Mind you I haven't heard the expression 'ding' since I was growing up.
I am not sure though that the Italians and Greeks took offence to the names...the ones I new always gave heaps back...generally 'skippys'. Probaly still wrong but it seemed a more light hearted jibe in days gone by not something that people got up in arms about...not where I grew up anyway.
