**Songs you liked but now feel kinda (or really) uncomfortable about** 1. _Turning Japanese_ by The Vapors 2. _Holiday in Cambodia_ by Dead Kennedys Will always be a great song (your milage may vary, I suppose) but the lyrics contain the N word. In context there’s a point to it but I could not sing that out loud. ---

I really do. And I understand what you’re doing here. You’re not using that word as a racial epithet but as a catch-all term for anyone who’s “outside of society,” and you’re celebrating that status, and you wanted a word that would have some impact. Your intentions cannot be questioned. Still, I don’t think it’s your word to do that with, and if you’d found damn near any other word at all, I could blast that song out of my car. ---
