Political Correctness Gone MadFreddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."

I'm half stumpedNonce="Non-standard criminal element"... apparently. It refers to pædophiles.
I have no idea what the all-day breakfast label refers to though. Can someone else explain?

all day breakfastit could mean that whereas other people like to enjoy "meals" more appropriate to the "time of day", these nonces prefer to continue to have "breakfast" "all day"
