i wish there was a way to find every kid out there who Never Wants To Accidentally Say Slurs and teach them the easily typoed ones bc like if you taught Everyone then ppl who want to say slurs will just be like "oh boy new slurs to use" but theres also no feeling quite like getting a message saying "hey uhh i know it wasnt on purpose but you really gotta be careful abt watching your fingers when you type xyz because cyz is actually a really horrible and well known slur that you just happened to never hear before" when using slurs you shouldnt is the very last thing you want to do. and thats in the event that someone who knows you well enough to know it wasnt on purpose and can recognize it was a typo is the one who reaches out, the alternative is just yknow. getting blocked and/or yelled at for being an asshole because "well everyone knows thats a slur so you MUST be saying it on purpose and saying you didn't know it was one as an excuse"
#ig if any of those kids are reading this: be very careful writing 'like' and 'epic' they are both one key off from slurs#also not quite the same but close enough it bears bringing up now: if youve ever said 'you got jipped' meaning someone had something#stolen from them‚ bc you heard someone else say it and assumed that was how its spelled and it was just Weird Slang you werent familiar w#im sorry but what you actually said was 'got gypped' as in 'g*psy' as in the anti romani slur#which is also why its being used to mean theft bc thats also a big part of anti romani stuff#altho from what i gathered from google this is a common enough assumption that jipped on its own is just considered an alternate spelling#also if youre in food service and need to label the jalepenos. put jalps. or just spell it out fully. but dont do the first one you think o#/tw slurs#origibberish
