    Do you also attack dictionaries for explaining offensive words? The person I’m talking to never used the term, they merely explained the meaning behind the number.

    What you are doing is shooting the messenger. Please target your outrage more carefully in future.

      They’re also the one straight up using the term, which is why I asked in the first place (that being I had no clue what it meant)

      If they use them in an obviously offensive way, yes.

      The person who gave the explanation is the same person who initially used it to mean offense. You can check the usernames to see exactly this.

      They’re an ass. There is no messenger.
