For many a year now I have been fascinated by racial slurs. Not because I am particularly the racist, but because I find the concept of someone hating, for example, a 'Kraut' or a ‘Honkie’ to be wildly humorous. Mind you, I understand that terms can be hateful and offensive to the target of such abuse but I can’t help but laugh at someone who calls another a 'Yid' derisively. I mean, aren’t we supposed to be adults? A 'Yid'?
In any case I am happy to note that thanks to
The Racial Slur Database I have
finally found a racial slur for that small clan that is mine, the Slovaks. Only 3 million and yet we have our very own slur! Olejnik is, though I now have to broach this with my parents to try to figure out exactly what it means.
