Have always thought it strange that Paki being short for Pakistani is offensive but Brit short for British is not.

Wow! I've always wanted to meet you, queen. Is it true that you think the world smells of paint? 'Cause some painter is always around the corner from where you visit? I love your mam? Did you know I won twenty pound when she died? It was one of those bets on which celebrity dies first. Can I ask you a question Queen? When you have an orgasm, do you scream very poshly or are you one of those boring silent ones?
One thinks a Paki is a Paki and us Brits are Brits.

A pakistani woman bought the registration plate PAK1 for her car but was made to remove it by the Police because they said it was offensive!
I think that people these days are just too sensitive.
If the word 'Honky' (from the 60's) was used again by black people, etc to call us white guys i wouldn't be in the slightest bit offended.
Is it really that important when people are dying everyday from stavation in this world?
We need to get our priorities right.

You must speak to your friends to have the education system improved in your country, as that shows that the level of it is too low.

It may be a reference form one who comes from Pakistan - although an abbreviation it may be derogatory.

The queen would never use the word 'one' in that sense, she would say 'we'.
