It's a proper term but how many white people refer to their ethnicity as
"Caucasian"? As a member of that "tribe" I don't think I've ever used
it except maybe when some form had it as a choice to mark; I just use
the word "white" for myself.

At least TPTB on the show didn't have "European hyphen American"!


I wouldnt over think it, I believe they were saying it in a joking manner.

I think they should've gone with "Crackers". That's how i refer to
myself.
