    Black Eye Peas "Let's Get it Started" & the R-Slur

    Oh, shit, the etymology dorks are wading into R-slur discourse? That sounds … idiotic? Moronic? But if the president of the United States is tweeting it, I suppose we’d better talk about why. Also, we should talk about the problematic origins of the most iconic twenty-ohs sports hype song. It’s so… DANGIT! You can’t say ANYTHING anymore!
