I could accept it if you were more careful with using derogatory names for nations. Otherwise I expect that next you would come up with something like wopasta (wop+pasta), shakshukike (shakshuka+kike), niggeribs (nigger+ribs). Or would these be considered unacceptable for a public forum like this? Or does using Cyrillic absolve you from being considered abusive?Quote:

My understanding was that khokhol is considered a fairly playful sobriquet like "limey" or "cheesehead". I apologize for being a goat.Quote:

They are not meant as puns but as telescopic words (like brunch= breakfast + lunch).Quote:
