It must be generational. I've never heard it up North either.

I had never heard the word until a Jewish friend of mine went by the online handle "homokike" (he was also gay.)

This thread made me curious about the etymology:

Quote:
derogatory slang for "Jew," 1904, perhaps originating among Ger.-American Jews in reference to newcomers from Eastern Europe, whose names ended in -ki or -ky. Philip Cowen, first editor of "The American Hebrew," suggests a source in Yiddish kikel "circle." According to him, Jewish immigrants, ignorant of writing with the Latin alphabet, signed their entry forms with a circle, eschewing the "X" as a sign of Christianity. Ellis Island immigration inspectors began calling such people kikels, and the term shortened as it passed into general use.

third generation huh, looks like you've got one generation to go before your family will be released from its curse of unbelief

Atheists serve no one, does not apply nor can you hate something that does not exist.
You are easily confused.

Secular humanist. I don't know if there's a god or not, and I'm not looking for evidence either way. It just doesn't make a difference to me.
