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."

swimmingMy brothr once said to me that you never see many black guys in the swimming events. Something to do with muscle / bone density.
I thought he was speaking from betwixt his buttocks, but a bit a research shows there are two opinions on this. It's either physiological differences (body density means they don't float as easily), or social differences (swimming is expensive to get into and black people tend to be less affluent) but I think that's bollocks, there are plenty of black people in well-to-do communities.
Any thoughts anyone?
