Say it loud, I'm Canadian and I'm Proud

You know what I just heard?
In the U.S. South, it has finally become socially unacceptable to refer to African-Americans by the "N" word in public. Which is progress, I suppose, even if it comes along pretty frickin' late in the game. Of course, that doesn't mean the haters have stopped with the hatin'. They just picked up a new "code word" they can use when standing in line at the Cracker Barrel, trash-talking our chocolate colored brothers from other mothers.
Can you guess what it is?
I'll tell you. The Official African-American Racial Slur for 2008 is...

"Canadian."

Seriously, dude.
I have no idea why. But it must be true, cause I read it right here on the Internet. Kind of makes you look at that song from South Park in a whole new light, eh?

and on a related note: SOUL TRAIN!

Whoa. So should us actual Canadians refer to each other as n***ers now??

hate to say it friends, by that "new" slur ain't so new. in fact, i might know a few folk who were tossing it around quite a few years ago. mostly because my righteous 14-year-old self got all in a tiff about them using the n-word (which was a ridiculous situation to begin with since they were supposed to be the grown-ups). in any case, they thought they were pretty funny. guess they weren't alone.
