hardstep asked: re: "Heebie-jeebies" - some quick googling for the origin of this term yields few solid results and nothing offensive, so far as I can tell. can you elaborate on this? I'm really curious! thank you!
I always heard it was anti-semitic.
here are some words that are impolite to use that you may not know are impolite:
- midget/dwarf
- gypsy
- “gypped” (derived from gypsy)
- crippled
- retarded
- “ghetto” in reference to things that are shoddy/bad/unseemly
it’s okay if you didn’t know these words are rude but if you are reminded, or if someone tells you, all you have to do is try not to use these words in the future
that’s all
your effort in being polite and respectful to those around you will be appreciated!
I would probably use a stronger word than ‘impolite’ but the point is well taken! I would also add “lame,” which I’m guilty of using and am working on removing from my vocabulary. Oh, and “heebie jeebies.”
