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

I pulled the white average male card last nightwas at a club in manchester and after waiting a phenomenal length of time at the bar not being served i complained to the manager (I was reeeally pissed off see)
I mentioned offhand that the barman (barperson?) was only serving the ladies. As soon as I said ladies he stapped to attention and said "be right with you mate"
Got some free drinks out of that :)
length? long enough to get the manager to serve me personally
