Hopefully this gives Young some extra spice heading into Monday's game

I'm not going to think of something extra witty or clever to say, I don't want to convince you to see things my way, I just have 2 words for you: JEREMY LAMB

paki weddings are nothing like american weddings

for one thing…..its sad…and im not even kidding about that (im paki)

this isnt to say the marriage is sad, but paki weddings consists of several events, all of which are pretty joyous, and out of all them it is the wedding day itself that is usually the most somber, and actually ends with more tears of sadness than of tears with joy…..

Some of us consider American weddings sad

But a wedding + Nick Young? Throw in some wedding cake, and I’ll play the groom.

yeah, weddings have a lot

in common with funerals. Both signify the end of a life.

Where do they teach you to talk like this? In some Panama City "Sailor wanna hump-hump" bar, or is it getaway day and your last shot at his whiskey? Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here.

fyi,

paki is a racial slur against asians in the UK. Just saying.

Great

Now I have to worry about inadvertently saying something that offends someone in ANOTHER country….

Interesting that the Pakistani poster is the one that wrote “Paki”…. and he doesn’t seem offended by his own words…

dude in chicago we celebrate the Pakistani Independence Day

and for short, ever since ive been little, its been called Paki-Day, i didnt make the word up, it existed. I swear i saw a button or something with it as well, maybe non U.S. pakis are just uber sensitive.

cool, I'm not South Asian, but def in Britain, it's derogatory.

I watched the movie “Bend It Like Beckham” when it came out and in one sequence, a white girl called out the main character Jess a Paki, so Jess shoved her real hard. After the movie, I looked up the term and learned it was really bad for British people. Yes, I liked “Bend It Like Beckham” too.

i saw the movie in school once

and i vaguely remember that scene cuz some kids asked me why she was so offended and i figured it had more to do with the paki indian rivalry as opposed to it being a generally derogatory term. If you call a paki guy an indian they are gonna get upset, sort of like if you call a mexican a puerto rican or vice versa. If an indian person gets offended by being called paki to me that makes sense, cuz they arent pakistani. I dont get the pakis who get mad at being called pakis.

i only recent learned this

when watching an interview of russel peters, and how in canada they called him paki and it hurt him. It led to a weird youtube argument too…and i honestly dont get it.

Whats insulting about being called paki, its not a double meaning thing, the full word is pakistani, and if you simplay take away the stani part you get paki…

Ive been born and raised in america so i have no idea, but i also have paki friends and when we have introduced ourselves to white people we called ourselves paki. None of us are from canada or the us so maybe thats a big reason.

I…just dont get it, and the sensitive people that allowed paki to become derogatory are dumb imo. Calling paki guys terrorists, yea thats offensive…..but paki?
