Snowball

[Anto7]

is the word "snowball" offencive to you? as a white person, if a black person were to call you a snowball would you find it offencive?

[pdust]

wouldnt bother me in the slightest

[Sharingan]

Nope.

[FredPuli43]

No. Honky is supposedly derogatory but a) I've no idea what it is derived from b) it makes a white man sound like a goose, hardly an insult without more; "silly goose" is charmingly Edwardian c) it sounds so endearing

[joeluke]

Only those who do their damnedest to search for offensiveness in everything that is said/done in this uber-PC age would be offended by this

Like when the do-gooders deemed that blackboards were to be banned in schools.......it's black and it's a board so where's the offensiveness in that???

[boxtops]

Ah, but they are whiteboards now, Joe.....

[pdust]

was just gonna say that boxy ... senseless totally senseless

[pdust]

the kids at nursery round here had to stop saying baa baa black sheep and instead sang baa baa white sheep ??????
