Default Cracker -- Did Someone In The House Say This?
I see people using this a few times on here. I thought I heard someone on the show say it, even Tommy.

Did anyone? Where's this coming from?

Cracker in the US is a term that black people call, racist white folks. It sin reference to the slave master cracking the whip.

Ive used it, yesterday because someone really annoyed me, and I apologize. It annoyed me even more because they didnt know what I was saying.

But no one in the house used it as far as I know.
