Too far?
It was really only my top two paragraphs that were serious :)
Oh. Nevermind then.
On a side note.... it occurs to me that Han calling Jabba a "slimy piece of worm ridden filth" doesn't fit this conversation about 'racism' or 'speciesism' so much.
That's an insult that could just as easily be directed at a human. On top of that, there's no reason to think Jabba's species is particuarly slimy, filthy, or worm-ridden. They're just a series of non-specific insults.
Just the other day I was called a 'greasy bastard' after winning a wager. I actually have quite dry skin, so I assume it was figurative.
