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."

not unlike Rootx's answer....
..a few weeks back I was walking through this crossroads in Swansea while wearing a cheap "I'm the Daddy!" tshirt. This granny smiles at me and says "Oh, you're the daddy are you?" to which I reply "You bet your sweet ass I am momma!" and carry on walking. No fucking idea who she was too; she was old as feck and held together by dust.
