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."

Music in schoolI was teaching a happy lesson or Yr 11's, and I had random play on my iPod. The class was being observed by the head of Yr 11 in terms of behaviour.
A tune came on, one of the kids asked "whats that tune"?
I reply - "The Day the Niggaz took over", but I can't remember who did it"..
I was summoned from the room and given a bollocking for being racist. It was the name or a song!!
