A derogatory term that applies to black people. Derived from the 1990 film "Ghost Dad" starring Bill Cosby. It can be used in place of more harsh and well known terms when speaking directly to a person of dark skin in order to instill a sense of confusion while, if spoken with correct emphasis and dictation, still cause feelings of anger and offense. It is also important to note that it should be used in dialogue with respectable black men who have jobs or wear suits, not the "Gangsta Thug" type.
