So my roommates and I, have gotten into the habit of greeting and calling each other using the N word, and we are not black. Don't know how it started, don't know why we stuck with it, we're not racist at all, but we just did.

Anyway, today I went to the library to study, and saw my roomie sitting at a table, so I walk over and said to him, in a very audible volume, "what up niggah" out of habit. About 20 heads turned my direction, two of them black.

What happened afterwards could only be described as a very, very anguishing experience.

Just one of those "don't do it" life lessons that might be quite helpful to know.

Well, couldn't really have been helped, I suppose. I mean, you would never intentionally speak aloud in the library. One of those moments you act unconsciously and screw you over.

I use nigga all the time with friends and my brothers. I live in Chicago so I've heard it used so many times that it's now part of my vocabulary. That's happened to me once. I was in a buffet with my friend and I was like "Take it easy on the chicken nigga", or something.

I felt slightly embarrassed, but I'll argue that "nigga" is like "dude" nowadays.

I told my Asian buddy, after he made a Jewish joke, to "build me a railroad" just as an Asian waitress walked up. Fun times. Fortunately we already had our food. Regardless, people need to calm down more instead of getting all angry. A joke between friends is nothing to get pissy over.

The fear of being labeled as racist in USA is so damn annoying. Who cares if you call someone nigga in a friendly context, you aren't really doing anything wrong.

My sister has a Bluetooth console in her car. We decided to register my phone with it, and we had just dropped my best friend off (Kingkosi), so when it came time to name the phone connection, I just randomly blurted out "BLACK PEOPLE". It's still registered as such, and my sister has told me a story or two about her cycling through the phones when she had people, some of them black, in the car.

I'm glad you're here to tell people what they should and shouldn't get upset over.

One of my friends does this, and he says there was a court case over this to justify the distinction between the N word into in -ga and ending in -ger. Still inappropriate, though.

Yeah...ive done something similar. Somehow got into the habit of saying like "aww niggahh" or "aww niggerr!!" when something bad happened. Just by myself or whatever, playing a video game. However, my sister and her half black boyfriend and I ordered pizza. When I realized the guy forgot tomatoes, I instinctively said "aw nigger no tomatoes" or something to that effect. DEAD silence. Slowly all three of us looked up and started laughing hysterically. Nothing bad came of it, but I made sure to rid myself of the habit to avoid such future awkward situations.

Edit: Pretty sure I started saying it cause of a boondogs episode, when a pimp or someone says it in a hysterical manner [which is how I always did it, mimicking whoever it was.]
