Ok, I’m going to admit that I definitely laughed at this one. If I was doing that to someone, and then they said ‘You need to stop going all Shanaynay on me,’ no matter how mad I was I’d probably burst out laughing. That being said, I can still see how it has racist connotations and just for matters of courtesy and decency, I probably would never say something like that unless I was joking around with my friends, who I know would not be offended and would get the joke. But to someone I don’t know… I’d probably skip that one.
