"Paki" is racist?

I thought you go to go all the way to "wog" to piss someone off as few as 5 years ago. American culture is making inroads everywhere.

Tit-for-tat, Pepe will say Frog is racist. JJ is right -- Amrican culture (but only the worst aspects, of course) is catching up, everywhere. Why don't they ever pick up something worthwhile from us -- like, say, using deodorant, or changing underwear every day?

Prompted by what JJ said on another thread, I checked noggin on wiki. I got:

Noggin, slang used in UK for a Norwegian (a person from Norway, ref. the Viking; Noggin the Nog)

Racist.

By the way, here is a list of slurs -- I don't see Paki among them, nor Frog. But they do appear in this much more comprehensive list.

What's wrong with Schwärmer?

I like how the Frenchies used to call the Brits, Les goddams. Didn't know that one, only les Rosbifs. Here is another little gem from that article:

In the Russian language, the word Sharomyzhnik (шаромыжник), which denotes a beggar, appeared after the Great Napoleonic War in 1812. Parts of the French army, which were left in Russia after their defeat, used to ask locals for food starting with the words "Cher ami" (dear friend), giving birth to a new idiom in the Russian language.

...on the other hand, anything that can cast a shadow on these useless, inept, decadent and idiotic royals should be welcome.

Prince Harry is a prick, that's for sure. Ten generations of inbreeding takes its toll, that's right. But then again, some of those pontificating Rosbif politicos are not much better...

Harry said nothing out of the ordinary in a military setting.

Pepe, if you'd get your dick outta there, your couilles de merde might a bit more propre.
