Oh, right... I forgot about that one because it's also the word for a pest in my area, double whammy slur

Apparently it's also now a slur for fake rednecks? So that's nice.

Oof I watched a clip from clerks 2 the other day where they drop the hard R multiple times and wow I did not remember them going that hard.

I'm not sure which one you mean. Wiggas? That's the one they used in Sweden.

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah but mostly hard r around my area.

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I legit don't know what that means. Not American.

Oh wait. You mean the ending 'r'?
