I mention this because this was the exact excuse offered by a white teacher who got caught calling a student the n-word years ago, and it was correctly rejected and ridiculed even back then.

Is that ... not what it means then? I'm not making an excuse, I'm saying that people came up with the "hard R" distinction and term to separate "colloquial" use from an undeniable slur.

Wrong Orange County there, it's the one in California since Brisbyland is meant to be Disneyland, they even mention a Florida offshoot at one point

Not to drag this out because certainly I was trying to word it as carefully and yet glibly as I could so we wouldn't get bogged down  But what I'm saying is that ending it with "-a" is how white people often manage to get away with saying they were just "using it the way They do". It doesn't hold much water and is super context sensitive, but saying "hard R" is the way to sidestep that whole quagmire and just say clearly that "the person used the N word and meant it".

It is as simple as that. The more you try to explain this, the worse you are looking. I don't think that is your intention here, but i don't care what anyone's excuse is with using the n word. It's all justification to be a racist shithead

It is not acceptable to use the n-word, regardless of the final phoneme, if you are not black. However, there is an observable phenomenon of nonblack people being overly familiar and using the n-word in an (inappropriately) familiar and colloquial manner, and then using "term of endearment" to try to escape social consequences. A hard-r use of the n-word is basically never used, intracommunaly, as a term of endearment. Therefore, there's no semiplausable deniability for racial hatred when some white kid drops "the hard R" in the discord. This may sound arcane and dumb but, like, when you go to fighting game tournaments in NYC and are surrounded by a combination of socially maladjusted nerds of various backgrounds, you deffo run into a wide range of white kids who are desperate for an n-word pass.

Everything I've heard about Crispin Glover is that he is very much NOT a normal guy. I've not heard he's an rear end in a top hat, but the general gouge on him is that he is extremely weird.

In a season 3 episode Killinger opens his Magic Murder Bag™ and reduces some people in a board room to dust. This very clearly a reference to the Adam West Batman movie.

I don't think Killinger was merely dehydrating them. I don't know why, but that whole gimmick in the Batman movie always makes me smile despite being so loving dumb, even for a 1960's comics story.

"Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb" is a perfect bit of comedy, and inspired the last act of The Dark Knight Rises.

That means the film was made before 2020, because if it was made in 2020 it wouldn’t have been able to come out in 2012.
