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."

On my first attempt at uni
I referred to a slacking groupmate who refused to do any useful work on the assumption we'd be too scared to fail the degree (which i dropped out of) to not do his work for him as a 'fat useless welsh c**t'
Oddly enough I got into a lot of trouble for the word 'Welsh'
