Of get used to being jumped at, dear Arutha.
Or do you, as a matter habit, use the term "nigger rigging" for 'something someone puts together on the fly?' Plenty of bigots use that term, so it must be OK, eh, just like the EU bigots who came up with your little term? The insult imbedded in the rigging term is blatantly obvious, yet the implied insult of "Americanization" in not? Right.
I use the term "jury rigging" for two reasons: one, I learned it first, and two, I figure that going out of my way to blatantly insult people by careless prose is zero value added, and adds hate and discontent to the world for no reason. When I insult someone, I am going to choose the words with some care. ;)
