The insults will cease to have meaning if the 'victims' cease reacting. This guy's reaction is priceless.

I know the n-word is an ugly one, but haters gonna use it, and blacks who use it continue to legitimize it and make it forbidden fruit to racist whites who of course are happy to shock and insult. It would do all of us a lot of good to develop thicker skins against the slings & arrows of outrageous fuckheads.

And there's no better way to piss off your enemies than to not get triggered by an ugly word. I've never forgotten your article in which some Macedonian kid called you the n-word and you chased him down, laughed in his face, and challenged him. What if we all did that?

Yep, I wish more people would react like this. Only, I didn't chase him down, he skulked off once he realised I wasn't going to burst into tears. Which was immensely more satisfying.

I thought you chased him after he lobbed the n-bomb at you while riding his bike...?

Nope. He was ready to ride off in case I decided to chase him, but he was unprepared for how little I cared about his stupidity.
