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."

last christmas
we were on a cruise in the caribbean. most of the people on board were merkins, and a lot of them were jewish. we only realised this when we overheard the merkins on the table next to us bollocking the sweet little filippino waitress for wishing them a merry christmas on christmas morning.
"that is offensive to most of the people in this room. can you learn to say 'happy holidays'?"
my brothers were restrained with difficulty from bashing them. instead, much to my embarrassment, one said loudly, can you learn to say "patronising racist twat"?
they were cunts, though. overly made up bejewlled big haired gold shoe wearing shoulder padded cunts. and that was just the men!
