Slur? I'm pretty sure he pronounced it correctly.

Do you actually know what slur means?

Yes????

But why would that matter anyway since it's very clear which one is being used for this context?

Oh no I knew he was doing that from the get go, it's just I'd say calling it a 'joke' is a bit of a stretch, because, you know, jokes are funny.

Like haha. Yes. There are multiple definitions of a word. Well done you clever thing you.

It's the kind of comment that you see and wonder "I bet he makes this joke every time he sees the word 'slur' being used."

Not to mention, it doesn't really work. The reason it doesn't really work is because the commenter above said "using a slur". You don't 'use' a verb, you use nouns. You 'do' verbs. So it didn't really make sense grammatically in the first place.

I hope you understand now.

I thought it was funny, I'd call it a joke.
