Poor doggywogs :(

Edit: Wow, HN didn't like that. Nevermind, screw the dogs I guess, just toss the frozen ones over the cliff.

It's a common word in (UK, apparently) English, cf. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/doggy_woggy

I've literally never once heard someone use the ethnic slur "wog", and I grew up in 90s South Africa :)

It certainly was in the `70s, but faded away after that. Mind you, given the recent surge in popularity of fascists, it might make a comeback.
