As for cleaning their toilets - that your job was it?

Everybody knows a good 'un, eh?
But the rest deserve what's coming to them no doubt!

As for Manc, well isn't that derrogatory name for somebody who comes from Manchester? Wouln't that be deemed 'racist' to some? Its exactly the same thing - taffs, scousers, spics what exactly is the problem here? get off your high horses the lot you.

I say positive things on the board all the time. Just not to you, nit-wit. I'll stop my name calling though...... you've done far more than I could ever do to degrade yourself and expose your true colors. What a sad joke you are.

How exactly is Spic any more 'offensive' than Hispanic?
The fact is, its not the only people crowing about it know are those who want to prove something about their supposed lack of prejudice.

Might be an idea to read posts a little more carefully before screaming RACISM mate!![Roll Eyes](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)

The term "spic" falls into the same category as the use of the word "nigger". It is a racial slur and will not be tolerated here on BE or in real life either.
Just so that you know, the term s**c refers to those of Puerto Rican descent and not Mexicans.

Clearly you consider cleaning the toilets beneath you or you wouldn't have made that comment would you?

I grew up in a poor working class neighborhood. I still would be termed as "working" class as I make less than what is considered middle class in American society today.
I find the term very offensive and so would my Mexican friends and co-workers.
