I don't set the rules and genuinely had no idea it was offensive but apparently it is, so there we go. 

FWIW I think it might be a US thing - they put Japanese Americans in internment camps.  Those US citizens were very fucked off about it, to put it mildly.

I think that's why it just sounds like a nationality like a 'Czech' in the UK, but it's a lot more loaded ethnic term with bad history in the US because it was used against Americans to imprison them as enemies.

Why it’s short for Japanese, no difference from calling someone Scottish a Scot 

And the short of Pakistani? 

Fact is, some words are laden with more historical baggage than others, hence some are more offensive to the subjects of them than others.

Folk shouldn't be using it.

No issue with that, if people find it offensive it's fine. I've recently stopped calling my Catholic missus the F word.

I take offence to being called a Brit from now on. I want to be known as a resident of Her Majesty’s United Kingdom of Hreat Britain and Northern Ireland.

As someone who identifies as a resident of Her Majesty's United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, I find your comment extremely inappropriate and highly offensive. Expect a chap at the door soon
