Find the offensive words in this exchange:

Patient: Doctor, I am having trouble with my legs.

Doctor: Hmmmm...based on the developmental stage of each knee, I'd say you need some supplements to help your knee grow.

Patient: You racist bastard! I'm not here to listen to you degrade black people!!!

Doctor: What the hell are you talking about? One knee is underdeveloped. This will cause you even greater pain and expense over time if it's not addressed. We've got to help that knee grow!

Patient: What makes you think the negro wants your help?

Doctor: Not the negro you idiot! I want to enable growth in your knee?

Patient: Why didn't you just say so instead of insult black people?

Doctor: Who's on first?

Patient: Who gives a shit?

Though, for the erudite among us...

What is the origin of the English word squaw?
'Squaw' is one of a number of words in English that were borrowed from Eastern Algonquian languages, sometimes via French, during the early contact period. The source in this case is conventionally Massachusett squas (Webster's New World Dictionary, 2nd Edition). The term meant 'young woman' in Massachusett and is attested as early as 1624. In fact, related words derived from Proto-Algonquian *et^kwe:wa (t^ represents a theta - a th sound) 'woman' occur throughout the Algonquian language family. Mostly they're fairly similar to the proto-form and each other (cf. Cree iskwe:w), though in a few languages the descendant form is so modified by accumulated sound changes that only someone familiar with the changes involved would recognize it, e.g., Arapahoe h?thei. Bright's useful summary of this cites Cutler 1994 and Goddard 1996, 1997 for the etymology of the term.
Recently 'squaw' has been spuriously associated with a Mohawk term ots?skwa? 'female genitalia'. The ? here represents a glottal stop - the sound represented by dash in (h)uh-uh 'no'. This sounds to English ears somewhat like [ojiskwa] (oh-gee-squah in the Lewis & Clark Phonetic Alphabet). Bright says this incorrect explanation was first offered by Sanders & Peck in 1974 and then popularized in a television interview by Suzan Harjo. The terrible salaciousness of it all has outraged the socially sensitive and captured popular imagination so effectively that the long known actual explanation in terms of Massachussett tends to get overlooked.

There are two kinds of people in this world.

1. Those who have this curious, special need to be offended.
2. Those with a life.

And life, goddamnit, is choices.

For those who wish to contemplate the "choices" of Susan Harjo (referred to above):
