    While it's clear that spook has multiple, distinct meanings, it's still important to think about context this Halloween (and every day, really).https://n.pr/2OeaGbs

        Really NPR? Someone has clearly drunk the whole batch of KoolAid over there. No one gets to dictate our language or hold us hostage with their sense of offense. I’ll say the word when I want to and to whom. If they read something in that is on them. Ditto hanging decorations.

        Let’s see, yesterday it was the article on “be careful about ‘hanging’ Halloween decorations so they don’t look like lynchings”. Today it is spooks. NPR has lost its ever-loving-cotton-picking-liberal mind! (Oh, did I offend by saying “cotton-picking”??) 🙄🙄🙄
