KDKA The Port Authority is looking into bus slogans that some are calling offensive. Officials say they’ve recently received complaints that one of its slogans, “Ziggin Zaggin,” is offensive when read backwards, seeming to spell out a racial slur. Jim Ritchie with the Port Authority says they will remove the messages from buses.

“… due to recent complaints about how this message appears when read backward, we have decided to remove the message from our vehicles,” he said. “This will take us several days to properly remove. We apologize to anyone who may have been offended.” A few days ago, a driver complained after seeing the slogan on a bus in her rearview mirror. She says it spells out a racial slur when read backwards.

Just once I would love to jump into the brain of the idiots these days who get offended this easily. This offended-inception where you have to use a mirror to decode the Port Authority’s racist agenda. You can spot the naivety of whoever’s getting their panties in a bunch because if you end the N-word with an A there’s no racism there, its only the N-word ending in E-R.

I think someone needs to reevaluate the assholes complaining. Claiming they were offended when they looked in their rear view mirror may have sounded like a good point, but upon further review (above) there is no way any real word pops out.  The way the “g” is stylized it read’s like nippaz and nippiz. The yinzers complaining are the real offenders because they planted the offensive word in everyone’s head. It’s the same trick Louis CK called out when people think they’re safe saying “N word”

I’m sure the head of marketing is getting an earful this morning with the news that the bus is offended its target market.
