It was me who wrote "How-waa-ya" and in no shape, form, or
any sane persons imagination is that racist.  None, nada,
zip, zilch.  How his pea brain translated that into
something racist, I have no idea, and I won't delve into
that void that occupies his skull.

I don't see it either. I was wondering if I missed something.

David is always claiming people on the mainland do this or
that, or say this or that, eat this or that, go here or
there when he's utterly and stupidly clueless.

It's dying out, but you'll still hear people, especially
older people pronounce Hawaii as "How-waa-ya."  This is
pretty much a southern thing and they will get extremely
pissed off if you correct them with the proper pronunciation.
But of course, our resident racist knows this since he is
an expert on all things mainland.  Carrying that chip
around on his shoulder his whole life must be tiresome,
but he'd have it no other way.

I'd hate it if half my mind was constantly taken up by people's
differences in race, culture, skin colour etc.

So David, how's the weather in How-waa-ya today??

How dare you!
