I think many people realize this as most have studied a romance language of one sort or another in high school. If this is the explanation though what does "black brown" mean?

As I said, it used to be the name of a shade of brown......a dark brown. I even vaguely recall a tin of really old shoe polish in the cupboard when I was a kid with the colour being 'N*gger Brown'.

Could be anything from dark brown to the color of the thread holding the leather together.

“I had friends over from St. Lucia yesterday and they wouldn’t sit on the couch.”

 

Not sure why - but I found her adding that line was hilarious. As if the couch is evil.

Would an exorcism work on a couch, d'ya think?

 

Wonder why she didn't just tell the furniture store to take the frickin' thing back, and go buy a different couch with a politically-correct label? Oh, that's right, the whole "compensation" thingy...

I don't know what the big jigaboo is all over this.

Eh?

 

I'd compensate her by taking away the couch and giving her money back. And apologize again, to all black people. She could try suing the Chinese company, but good luck with that.

"Excuse me, do you have any red couches, like this 'Indian Red' colored Crayola crayon?"
