    Altoids Vs. 'Nillas: The Choice Is Yours

    Yesterday we polled you all on your picks for the new white racial slur, which will be expected to restore parity to our current racial insult imbalance. The runaway winner was "Altoids," with about 28% of the vote ("Osmonds" and "The Casians" finished second and third, respectively). But—there was a revolution in the comments! A huge outcry poured forth for a dark horse (so to speak) entrant: "'Nilla," first suggested by Sarcastro. So, out of respect for the importance of getting this right, we are throwing it back into your able, racist hands for the ultimate decision. Shut up, 'Nilla? Or shut up, Altoid? The final choice is yours. Vote below.
