Not sure correct terminology in UK these days but you would get crucified for calling a person "Oriental" in the US these days. It's considered akin to the N word over here.

There again I'm pretty sure you don't call them Asian American in Britain.

Wtf?

How and why?

"Oriental" is a proper word in the Oxford English Dictionary, and denotes people of Oriental extraction.

"******" is, and always has been, a slang word of abuse used against black people.

How in God's name are the two even remotely similar?

Rugs are Oriental not people. I dunno, people consider it very offensive and so I don't use it.

If you come to the US I advise not using the expression. People will think you're a Trump supporter.

I don't know the origin of ******, but due to its use in earlier literature I don't think it was always used with the intention of being offensive. I certainly wouldn't use either expression to refer to a person today.

The thought of being HIAG being smug after tonight’s game makes me want us to beat Spurs even more.

Hi, mate.

Remember when I said that United will prove to be a spent force, this season, yeah?

Also, remember when I said that we'd give you a footballing lesson in your own backyard?

I'm not being smug. I'm simply reminding you about what I said.

An apology wouldn't go unnoticed.
