Isn't Limey a derogatory term?

[extracurRICular]

is the term limeboy derogitory to a britt?

Yes..........yes it is..............

[Froch_uppercut]

the offensiveness of the term is really up to the brits. if it offends them, it offends them.


the term is not used to describe skin color being like white limestone. common misconception.

the term is used to refer to the lime flavored grog british sailors used to drink. grog is a diluted form of alcohol. it's used to keep drinking water from developing bacteria and algae on long sailing voyages.


you learn something every day.

if you ever need to know anything about anything ever again, just ask. i'm a gifted researcher. strong hands.

The most important bit is missing: Limes were eaten by sailors at sea for extended periods of time after it was discovered that fresh fruit and vegetables prevented scurvy, which of course occurs when there is a deficiency of vitamin c.

You are an idiot.

Honestly don't try to make posts that you think will make you look intelligent.

You have jumped on Wikipedia or some **** to try and cobble together a post that looks like you know what you're talking about.

You stand out like a sore thumb trying to pretend you have any knowledge of this subject whatsoever. Go to bed idiot.

You are stupid and uninformed.

Watch out everyone, he's from New England, and apparently his Dad floated about on the sea for a bit in a boat.

This qualifies him for the garbage he just spewed out.

Not in the slightest.
