SATIRE: Cracker Jack Brand to Change To Less Racist Name

... I luv it! That's particularly funny to me because I have a tenant who is literally dumber-than-dirt. He's blonde and blue-eyed; a thief, a liar, and has previously been into drugs (may still be). He used to refer to my son, who is mixed race as, "yur boy". Heavy emphasis on the word 'boy', as if my son was less than a hired hand. Like, "have yur boy come by here and pick up the air conditioners" or, "can you have yur boy cut around the fence for me, I don't have a weedeater" (well, tough, get one!). I had finally had all of that I was willing to put up with one day.

I sharply turned on my heel, looked him square in the eye, and told him in my best command voice, "You are referring to my son. He is NOT my 'Boy'; he IS my 'Son'. Don't you ever call him 'boy' again! You got that?!?" He said yes, ma'am, he'd read me loud & clear. Well, good!

Behind his back, I've called that man "Cracker-Boy" for years because of all of the above combined. "Cracker-boy and his woman" have been a lot of trouble over the decade they've rented from us.

So do you think I should mend my ways and start referring to him as "Caucasian-Boy" - ?!?
