It's simply a demonstration of the infinite chimpanzee theory. With five random letters and/or numbers each time this code is required, this was bound to happen eventually. |

>arguing semantics is pointless. if you cant avoid >racism 100% then why avoid it at all?Err, because racism is bad and should be prevented wherever possible? Use your argument and replace racism with any of the following
Murder
Rape
Theft
We cant avoid these 100%, so why bother avoiding them at all |

"Because chiggers are a type of insect -_-"So? A 'chink' is a weakness, an onomatopoeia/frail things hitting each other. What's your point? |

> word [can't] be racist if it isn't in context since it has multiple meanings. gook on the other hand i would have considered racistGook: sludge; any thick, viscous matter. Fact is, almost every racial-slur word has a legitimate meaning; words weren't just invented to describe people, they evolved from things those people did, looked like, or were know for. Although to my knowledge, Australian aborigines aren't known for eating a lot of Coon Cheese... |

Chink is a racial slur for a person of Chinese descent. Chink may also mean a small crevice or opening, often referring to a weakness such as a "chink in the armor", but also in purely descriptive contexts such as a chink between two bricks. The latter term is uncontroversial, since it predates the ethnic slur, though the slur may have origins from the original meaning. The usage of the word as an ethnic slur has sparked contemporary controversies in public and popular media. |

In this context it is racist. Not the original context, but in the context of this link. |

The word 'Chink' means more than one thing, whoever posted this would be the racist one. |

How did people manage to make that word into a racist word anyway?Why not 'chiggers.' Damn, that sounds way more offensive than chink. |

Eh captcha's... sometimes they are just unintentionally amusing. There are other words that have normal meanings that could pop up and appear racist. That's why I never buy Spic and Span cleaning supplies. |
