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."

...Regardless of whether I am a darkie or not (I am!) I do have to tip my hat a little to Mr Pooflake. Of course there is a little exaggeration (I hope!) But, fuck me... even I have had a few of those thoughts. My folks came over to the UK a good 30+ years ago and have worked their fucking bollocks off, and it drives them mental to see some of this stuff happen to.
