Should you really be using that word to describe people of Polish lineage? I mean couln't it be taken as being a racial slur against Polish people or something like that?
I'm not so sure that i'm all that comfortable with it, that's all but by all means if it's ok with you then slur away.

Actually, I think I am right that it IS a racial slur against people of Polish lineage and that is why I edited it out of my posts above.
