Why couldn’t it be the other kind of slurmaid? With the fish part on top, and the slug part on bottom?

That Slurmaid sure knows how to party!

I know the pun here, but my mind just went to a crass, horrible mermaid that just casually drops slurs.

I would also watch that movie.

The original Ariel was always The Original Party Worm.

I think this is a commentary replacing majority white productions to include minorities, but if you take a quick look: every female character has been replaced by a male character, none in the reverse. Mom could easily serve as Ursula, or Leela as King Triton, since Fry is decidedly not badass, but here we are.

I can't speak for the comment OP, but personally, I thought the comment was about being able to read it as "slur"-maid, implying they would be using slurs in the movie.

Well then, good news! It's a suppository.
