mulanyan

In the HBO show, "The Sopranos," the word "mulanyan/s" is frequently used as a racist or deragotary term for African Americans.
In the show, Tony Soprano is infuriated by his daughter Meadow, when he finds out she is dating a boy from a mixed-race (African American and Jewish) family. He tells his therapist that neither one of his sisters would have ever brought a "mulanyan" home when they were growing up.

There are many other references to the term throughout the show, always used by members of the mob but never by other characters. This is an indication of the Mafia's racist mentality.

The Mulaney Test

The Mulaney Test is the informal name of the "worse word" scenario outlined in John Mulaney's hit 2012 standup special "New in Town." Mulaney describes a situation in which he is writing for an awards show and uses the word "midget" in a script. Mulaney is confronted by network personnel and told that he "can't put the word midget on TV" because "'Midget' is as bad as the 'n-word" to which Mulaney retorts "First off: no. No, it's not! "Do you know how I know it's not," I said to him, "is because we’re saying the word 'midget,' and we’re not even saying what the 'n-word' is!"

Finally, Mulaney offers The Mulaney Test succinctly: If you're comparing the badness of two words, and you won’t even say one of them? That's the worse word.
Z: Man, the boss said some wild shit earlier.
J: Like what?
Z: Well, he was talking about Indians and some other shit I can even say out loud.
J: Oh wow
Z: Yeah, I don't know which was worse
J: Well, per The Mulaney Test, the stuff you won't say out loud was worse.
