Would people still feel some kind of way about the word "niggardly" if it didn't remind them of another word?
How come no one says "it's only a game" when their team is winning?
Whatever happened to Preparations A through G?
Why do overlook and oversee mean opposite things?
Why are a wise man and a wise guy opposites?
I'm glad I got those off of my chest. With that said, would that statement be received differently if someone were to say "I have to get something off of my breasts?"

Seems to me that people have an issue/making connections with the slave trade because of the game being called planking. I do think that if this was known worldwide as only "The Laying Down Game" people wouldn't make the connection, or it would be a much smaller group of people who would. And on the opposite side, I'm sure if this fad was started in South Carolina instead of overseas everybody and their mother would think that they were mocking the slave trade practice. I knew about the planking fad but this thread is the first time I've heard someone make a connection to slavery. I, like most people, don't think it is connected.
