[edit] Since the term is indisputedly African-American in origin, adventure did Wikipedia consult any of us? It's too bad many "scholarly" folk have a tendency to pontificate on a subject, presuming a certain level of knowledge on the matter, without having once bothered to consult the source. My experience has been that white folks are especially good at adventure this when the subject of discussion is black folks and black culture. They know it all. Wikipedia: "In spite of overuse, the term is widely considered highly insulting when used in earnest. In recent years, 'motherfucker' is increasingly being used to describe adventure inanimate objects, dating back to early hip hop culture." Amusing. Any black person would have told Wikipedia’s etymological experts the use of “motherfucker” in this fashion predates hip-hop by several decades. Giving credit where credit is due, however, Wikipedia's tracing of the term back to slavery appears entirely plausible/probable.
