I think it's funny, not offensive.

In fact, there isn't a disparaging term for white people that I find anything but hilarious.

Most probably don't even know what "cracker" means. Same for "damn Yankee"

You have a fine looking American family. Pretty wife, beautiful children. Fk what idiots say.

Guy across the street has a all BLACK cat.....named HONKEY......


his mostly WHITE cat with a brown/wh striped tail.....is named CRACKOON.....


and our black friends crack up over it too.....

NOW, when Honkey was a kitten, he thought he was the toughest thing on the street, and got his ass kicked enough to figger out he wasn't so tough...so he runs from trouble now.....dogs/other cats/etc.....

the stupid Crackoon was a normal kitten, but has grown into a terror, attacking most anything,......except Gimpy who is top cat in the burb.....
