I have some friends who are pakis. I call them paki's because they call each other pakis. They call me whitey and snowflake sometimes and occassionaly "honkey". I dont have any friends who are gypsies mainly because they are rough as old boots, highly uneducated, and smell of cabbage. You cant trust them. If it isnt nailed down they steal it. I saw some of them gypos stealing a length of rope from someones garden, yet not 50 yards away is the entrance to a small B&Q where they have rope and chord on sale. Ha ha ha. They picked on the wrong house because the guy who lives there is a middleweight amateur boxer and he gave two quite big blokes a bloody nose each and one got a black eye as well, course they threatened to get their mates down there but by that time the guys two brothers came to see what was up and they are bigger than even the first guy. I saw the whole thing, of course if you are a policeman then I saw nothing at all BTW who gives a double fuck in double dutch what words are used so long as what is being said is true? If I use the word ****** how is that different from them using the word ****** (whoever it is) I call some of my white friends ******, dont mean I am saying "hey, you thick black ****" hows your day been? if I say hey nigga whats been goin on Same with my black friends I wouldnt shake their hand and say hey ****** its us two goin for a beer right now, if what that really meant was hey you inferior black **** lets go for a beer. It wouldnt make sense Yeah I was wondering that as well. I think some others must have turned up when we werent looking, or i just miscounted. The real point is though that they are back and this time the local magistrates will deal with them as they are going to impound their vehicles if they arent roadworthy or fit for habitation At least we hope. These gypos are sneaky, they keep drivin off an comin back
It's not the words that bother me, it's the connotations and the context. Plenty of my friends call me a Paki and I don't mind, in some ways it's just a friendly term and I'm just as happy to dish out derogatory terms meant in an endearing way. What I would never do, however, is use such a term where I know it would offend someone or in a neutral situation where people wouldn't understand that I was not actually meaning it in a racist way at all. And of course, if someone called me a Paki in a hateful way, I would punch them and not think twice....
Any money made by any member of the Gypsy household goes to the husband. A Gypsy women must never speak ill of her husband and must alway treat him with great respect in public, a trait which is considered to bring good fortune to the entire family. Gypsies are also fiercely territorial.
