Words are less important than the way in which they are used:
"...LEGO sucks for bending over and letting the Maori ream them like this..."
isn't particularly nice language. And not "giving a rat's @$$" about a culture
isn't very nice either. Perhaps Suz is just trying to go for a friendlier
atmosphere...
