Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

A friend of mine from back home, and here sort of, was married to a Royal Marine and lived in England for a while. She used the term there, and everyone was pretty horrified.

Oh yeah, I know. But the same (pronounced) word is also a derogatory term for Pakistani, and I always get that initial ugly reaction and then consciously remind myself of what he's actually saying.
