I once worked with a black dude who said the word all the time. One day we were talking hella shit about our boss and all kinds of n words flying out of his mouth, and I let one loose too, froze, and looked at him and he didn't even give a shit.

People joke about the hard R but there really is a huge difference. And besides, people know there's a big contextual difference. Homies aren't going to mind if you're just hanging out with them ... probably.
