There's like a good 100+ terms that begin with the word, "Jew."
I think quite a few of them are hilarious. If it isn't said in sincerity, who the hell cares?
Don't be such a Puritan. |

I think I see what you're getting at.
For two reasons:
#1. Because it isn't as funny.
#2. Because Urban Dictionary is a magnet for social liberals. |

The same reason that there's so much Islamophobia...
This website is nothing but a mere joke dictionary forum... |

| It is actually a very useful site. It obviously isn't scholarly, but it will give you an idea of today's contemporary slang and how it is used. Very useful for slightly older people who don't keep up. For example, I had to explain the other day, that the word "Stupid" in 2006 is often an adjective having a very positive connotation. |
