this is a pretty interesting thought...

I get the feeling that whatever he called him, he'd lose an antenna.
Come to think of it, why weren't Vulcans called pinkskins? Their skin tone is a much more obvious difference to the Andorians than the shape of their ears.
He just called him by the n word instead. There was a deleted scene where it happened and Travis gave a great speech about why Shran shouldn't use that word and the racial injustices in human history. It was the most moving and powerful scene about racism that I've ever seen and easily beat Benny Russel's breakdown in Far Beyond the Stars.
Like all Travis's scenes it was cut for time so they could fit in more shots of T'Pol in her pyjamas.

From the P.O.V. of a blueskinned creature, how dark or light on the beige-o-meter an individual human registers probably isn't terribly noteworthy. Now, the remark would probably have seemed incongruous to the non-blueskinned and very race-conscious television audience.
Priceless. Not just funny, but spot on all around.
