As an Irish man, I’m more offended that people would not say paddy wagon out of fear of offending me.

Alternately, “You are tearing me apart, Lisa”

This ^ . Is it racist if the person on the speaking end and the person on the listening end don’t even know the origin??? Isn’t it BETTER that the negative connotations from these terms were lost? I enjoy the etymological information, but I wonder what sense there is in trying to put the hateful/negative power back…

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Pop Team Epic.
