Political Correctness Gone Mad

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."

my name is ginge
Hello all from the middle of nowhereistan. I was given a hearty dressing down the other day by my troopy (Troop commander) as I described one of the locals as a "filthy dirty donkey riding arsewipe" "you really must be more sensitive towards the local population and speaking of them in such a negative way could cause bad feelings, ok Taff?"
1, he was dirty, foul smelling and had ridden up on a donkey
2, after what us and the septics, the russians, the taliban etc have done to this place I hardly think a few unkind words are going to tip the population one way or the other
3, I had just finished cleaning out his infected leg ulcer and given him medication so he wouldn't end up with blood poisioning!!
4, to cap it all off he calls me TAFF!!!!! that is racism in itself.
my name is Ginge!!
P.S. I am sorry about the arsewipe bit, trust me if he'd looked anything like "RSwipe" he wouldn't have made it out of the medcentre in one peice..... Deep throaty growl!!!!!!!!!!!!
