This is a question 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)

Political correctness gone mad - another poor story from your's truly
Some time ago I was living just outside inverness when the local MSP visited my village. He did the usual visit the pub, look-like-an-everyman-while-being-followed-by-a-dozen-cameras-thing that political types seem to enjoy. The pub quiz was on and I found him standing over my shoulder as he spied my answer to question 12 - What is the biggest loch in Scotland? I put down Loch Lomond thinking it was right. At which point he said that I was wrong and that Loch Ness was the correct answer. A row ensued where things got gradually more heated untill he pulled down his trousers, did a shit on the floor and proceeded to eat it.
Well to say I was shocked would be an understatement, it's just another case of "Political correct-Ness gone mad!"

"I thank you!"

Dammit!
The "I cast thee out!" button next to the "I like this!" one seems to have disappeared at a most inopportune moment.

Thanks for the feed back
I'm like the anti-frank spencer.
I'll come up with a terrible story every week and pretend like it really happened.
I challenge you to write a worse post. Person furthest down the list with a story over 150words gets a biscuit.

Bring it on!

Well
Loch Lomond has the largest surface area, but Loch Ness is deeper and has a larger volume.
