step 1: go to your favourite search engine

step 2: type "origin of the term ricing"

step 3: ignore the results relating to soap, cooking, or the adorable-but-wrong backronym "Race Inspired Car Enhancements"

step 4: discover that "ricing" was a) originally used as an insult (shitty cars with lots of mods) and b) referencing people from east Asia cos, yknow, japanchinesekorean people like rice

step 5: stop using the word in the context of "mods"

step 3 takes some nuance, fair enough
