WOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Depends... Spike Lee would probably say no but agree with me that Robby's cat's name carries racist overtones coming from a white male. If you take a look at Robbies original post he uses his standard emoticons to express shock that his black cat was named Spooky or Spook for short.
Robby is about 38. He Was born in a time period when the word Spook was used as a derrogatory synonym for the word "n****r" (I think David T banned the use of that word in all settings.)
It would be racist to name my dog 'moulinyan' even if I loved eggplant and the dog was black because 'moulinyan' is a racist term for blacks that was used by Italians.
On a side note... I move to ban Robby's cat from Morrissey Solo on the grounds that his cat is racist and we don't need any of that around here.
Robby's cat should not be welcomed with open arms.
