If the language used in getting a point across was offensive, I already acknowledged all responses. Maybe watching Chapelle has had a bad influence on me. I forgot that some people can use certain words liberally but others can't. Sometimes the word is funny, sometimes it is super cool but other times it is bad, full stop and regardless of intent. It's difficult to keep track of all the rules. Not being white myself I sometimes think I have certain privileges which maybe I don't after all.
If you genuinely believe I used those words to express some form of racial superiority over a group of people well I can see why that would offend. Fortunately that's not the case.
