a demoralizing racial slur used to put down people of Japanese background. equal to calling an asian person a chink or a black person a nigger.
Look at that damn nipper.

word to describe a friend with small stature. Usually below 5'7. It is not used to be racist it defines a small one, comparing it to a small english lad. it is also good because not alot of people know its true meaning which makes it more effective than midget or shrimp. can also be shortened to nip.

the cabin boy was flipper,
he was a fucking nipper,
he stuffed his ass with broken glass,
and circumsized the skipper.
