I don't like hearing slur words - but they can be used in certain context which is funny.
What I HATE - and I can remember Eddie Murphy doing this - is using the n-bomb continually and expecting people to laugh simply because he said the word. Worse yet - THEY DID. I'm sorry. There is no word that is simply hysterically funny because it's uttered...and redundancy doesn't make it any funnier.Merely offensive.
