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."

dearly beloved...When my Catholic and Protestant parents got married the first priest they spoke to refused to marry them, my grandparents on both sides were horrified, and my grandfather had to sit in the church car park because he'd recieved death threats saying that if he entered the church to give his daughter away it was bye-bye grandad. Northern Ireland, 1970s. Nice.
