[quote name='Stink_Pickle']Sensitivity goes a long way plus you do have a young audience in these forums. I would hate to see people drop the "n" word next and think it's funny. I hope you see my point.

Am I wrong or that out of touch with today's society that using the word oriental is racial slang?[/QUOTE]
I kinda summarized your post to break it down, I mean absolutely no offense to anyone with what I am about to say, but oriental isn't racist, but I would have to say asian is probally more politically correct.
If you can't take a joke, don't read on!
Second, the n word is funny, but it all depends on how you use it, it is not correct to say nigger, but sayin nigga is ok! There are total differences in between social cultures. I mean there are white people, rich white people, crackers, honkeys, rednecks and so one for white peeps. There are black people, niggers, and niggas. There are orientals, asians, Philippines, japanese, chinese, indian and so on, I am not gonna even break into the spanish, mexican, brazilian and so on. I guess it all depends on the back ground you have and how you were brought up and whether or not you can take a joke.
