Heh.  In the context at hand, the use of "nigger" was gratuitous -
neither funny, informative, or for that matter even insulting to anyone
in particular, given its randomness.  I don't find it particularly
objectionable, because it reflects on the poster only.

I do use the word "nigger" - rather sparingly and usually in the context
of taunting racists.  Pardon my langage but:  Half the people in my
neighborhood call each other "nigger" quite casually, so if I can't say
"nigger" from time to time for my own purposes, I'm a gonna do it
anyway.  Because fuck PC bullshit and the racist, sexist, classist etc.
New Left agenda it rode in on.

:o)
