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."

PC Gone mad?I like to have sex. Thus far I have had sex with
a) white english middle class male - UH Huuu(family fortune noise) - nil points
b) Man with hair-lip
c) Mixed race guy
d) Japanese fella - he was lovely, but ended up putting his little feet in the unexpected cat excrement at the end of a friends bed - therefore null and void (his reaction was something to behold) - possible need to expand on this story
e) Guy in wheelchair - The only unrequited love of my life. He was funny, so funny and charming and amazing that I wanted him. The only problem was that I was his boss. What did I do? I waited until I was bladdered, came on strong, and ended up in an alley in the City of London with my jumper around my neck as I sat on his lap. Class. My abiding memory of this encounter is his words: "who knew you had these puppies under that top". At this I became thoroughly over-excited and tipped the wheelchair over. The next day at work I was embarrassed at my behaviour, but he smoothed everything over and made me laugh. As always. My feelings for him were immense and yet I let him go. The idiocy of management displayed right there.
f) Woman - shall I go there while still holding my L plates? I think not.
I like to think of myself as an equal opportunity slut.
Apologies for any PC incorrectness. YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH EDIT: Please don't discriminate against my L plates - that makes you UN PC.

UmNone of that's politically incorrect. In any way. Are you sure you understand the concept?

In response...I think the Japanese cat-shit man may appear in a later QOTW. As for the final reply... The search for "equal opportunities" can often be likened to that of Political Correctness. Don't be a pedant darling, there's really no need.
