Political Correctness Gone Mad
Freddy 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."
How has PC affected you? (Please add your own tales - not five-year-old news stories cut-and-pasted from other websites)

It doesn't offend most people
they just feel a little sorry for you, going through life with a delusion as the central tenant for your existence.
My family are Wee Frees - the Shock Troops of the church - and hence I despise religion.
I don't mind Christians, individually, at all but I'd just wish they'd fuck off out of government & education and every other arena of public life, and keep their (ever so well meaning) deceit to themselves.
