Thank God the flight attendant didn't say "niggardly" in a sentence.

The combination of PC and ignorance gets pretty overwhelming, doesn't it. The last few years, the niger seeds I buy for my wild finch feeder have started coming in bags labelled with various alternate spellings, including "nyger" and "nyjer", to spare the PC sensitivities of the spelling-challenged. Somebody better tell Niger Innis to change his name . . .

Last summer, I was served at a Burger King by a young black woman wearing a nametag emblazoned with "Nigah". I wouldn't have dared to ask how it was pronounced.
