{{quote|'''Randal:''' Well, I still don't think "porch monkey" should be considered a racial term. I mean, I've always used it to describe lazy people, not lazy black people. I think if we really tried, we could reclaim "porch monkey" and save it.
'''Dante:''' It can't be saved, Randal! The sole purpose for its creation, the only reason it exists in the first place, is to disparage an entire race! And even if it could be saved, you can't save it, because you're not black!
'''Randal:''' Well, listen to you. Telling me I can't do something because of the color of my skin? You're the racist!|''[[Film/Clerks II|Clerks II]]''}}
|''[[Clerks II]]''}}
 
{{quote|'''Matthew''': What are you going to do, [[Off to Boarding School|send me to]] [[Military School]]? Would West Point take a cripple?<br />

'''Matthew''': If I said "physically challenged" or "disabled", would it make ''you'' feel any better? I'm just being honest!|''[[One Life to Live]]''}}

{{quote|'''Granddad:''' Y'all need to start appreciating your granddaddy. I went and spent your inheritance on this beautiful house in this neighborhood and all I ask you to do is act like you got some class!

{{quote|'''Principal:''' So...Riley used the n-word before you did, then?
'''Teacher:''' He uses it every morning! He calls me nigga, he calls the other kids nigga, he calls ''himself'' nigga! All the time, 'nigga' this, 'nigga' that! '''NIGGA PLEASE!''' Bitch nigga, nigga have you lost your mind? Nigga, check that ho! Nigga you bullshitting, break yourself nigga! He says it so much I don't even notice it any more. Last week in lunch Riley says to a classmate, "Can a nigga borrow a french fry?" and my first thought wasn't "Oh my God, he said the word...the n-word...", no, it was "Now how is a nigga going to borrow a fry - nigga, is you gonna give it back?" I tell you, my inside voice never talked like this before he got in my class!|''[[The Boondocks]]''}}

{{quote|''"There is '''one time''' when a white person can say 'nigga'. If it's Christmas Eve, between 4:30 and 4:49 am, and you're in line at the toy store to buy the latest Transformers toy for your kid, and a black man hits you in the back of the head with a brick, beats your ass, Riverdances on you, takes your money, and then takes a piss on you and runs away, you can scream 'SOMEBODY CATCH THAT NIGGA!' Hell, if that happens, you can say 'nigga' for a whole month, but you better have the police report in your pocket in case someone wants to see your papers."''|'''Chris Rock'''}}
 
{{quote|With all disrespect
I don't really like you white motherfuckers, that's just where I'm at
Screaming [[w:All Lives Matter|"All Lives Matter"]]
Is a protest to [[w:Black Lives Matter|my protest]], what kind of shit is that?
And that's one war you'll never win
The power in the word "Nigga" is a different sin
We shouldn't say it but we do, and that just what it is
But that don't mean that you can say it just 'cause you got nigga friends
Nigga, that word was originated for you to keep us under
And when we use it, we know that's just how we greet each other
And when you use it, we know there's a double meaning under
|'''Joyner Lucas''', rapping from the perspective of a black man, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}43gm3CJePn0 "I'm Not Racist"]}}
 
{{quote|''"How about this new thing on the "N" word? Everybody's now against the "N" word. A good idea, though, right?"''|'''Larry King''', December 1, 2006}}
Line 47 ⟶ 67:
'''Jimbo''': Well that's not fair, I should be able to say "fag"!
'''Randy''': Hey Jimbo, you didn't get beeped.
'''Jimbo''': [[ClosetedTransparent GayCloset|Uh oh!]]|''[[South Park]]'' discussing a variant.}}
|''[[South Park]]'' discussing a variant.}}
 
{{quote|And it's important that we all respect that if these people should happen to choose to reclaim the word as their own it doesn't mean the rest of you have a right to its use.|'''[[Tim Minchin]]''', "Prejudice" (talking about the word {{spoiler|ginger}})}}
