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."

"I'm not a racist...but I really love racist jokes"Actually I'd say you're well up there in the "most racist post" list on this QOTW, which is doing well.
"If you call it a Paki shop, but then actually purchase goods from the shop in a friendly and civil manner, rather than smashing the windows and burning it down, then you're not really being racist against them, are you?"
Umm, yes you are. You could call it a corner shop / newsagents / local store?
