actually, no. no you can’t.
well, I guess racism won’t ever go away then; you have to stop giving the words power over you.

So, on Jeopardy, does using inflection count as phrasing the answer as a question?
Responses given by contestants on this quiz show come in this grammatical form.
A question?
“
We need to strike a deal. If blacks are going to go about slinging the n-word around at one another — and they are — then we will also stop pretending that there is no difference between quoting the word and saying it. That is not only fair but also a matter of exhibiting basic intelligence.
As always, there’s a fine line. To quote the word over and over is cocky, rude. But we always knew that Laura Schlessinger was rude. She’s paid to be rude, and if anyone is waiting for professionally rude people to always make a special exception for racial matters, then a certain Godot comes to mind.

Excerpt from Let’s Make a Deal on the N-Word by John McWhorter
I just enjoy this article because a. I am sick of people being outraged by people who make their living outraging people (Limbaugh comes to mind) and b. the principle that a white person can say the n- word when quoting something makes logical sense to me.
Also, any Godot reference makes me happy.

Ya, know. I (cash4oneness) was just thinking this. As much as a bink as this Schlesinger is, I didn’t feel like her use of the term ‘nigger’ was offensive.
Though, for all I know, she had been waiting for a context to yell it three times (then three more) and not seem racist. Her sponsors apparently felt the same way. Either way she is kinda a rude C-word.
(did I mean Cunt or Cracker? you’ll never know)
