In an effort to more fully understand… global cultures… I found this whilst perusing a database of racial slurs:
| Slur | Represents | Reasons/Origins |
| Zeppo | Americans | used by Australians |
They call us that? For seriously? Of all the incredible, obscure-seeming slurs (including Björk for icelanders) I can’t imagine one that would be less offensive to the American psyche. Hell, half of us wouldn’t even get the reference… I think.
This post is tagged: americans, Australians, culture, slurs. Comments open, and so are trackbacks.
