Political Correctness .....

[mellors]

There is a good reason why you can't say things like that. That isnt about being PC, thats just plain offensive.

And not even funny

Am I the only one who is fed up with political correctness ... ?

I was in my attic today routing through boxes that have followed me around from one house move to the next for 40 years ..... I found my old Teddy and his playmate, Golly Wog!

I have been informed that I am not allowed call hin Golly Wog any more cuz its un-pc!!

Fuck that!

Anyone for a dolphin sandwich?

Calm down. No one will be going through your attic looking for old toys with inappropriate name.

Evening Lucy. The mentioned joke was told to me at a Sales Conference many years ago in Stockholm by an Oxford educated native Kenyan born colleague. It is far from offensive considering some of the insults I had to put up with whilst living in England during the 70's from your fellow countrymen.

so because you were insulted in england in the 70's, the n-word isn't offensive?
your logic is defying me.

There is nothing admirable about ignorance, and I very much doubt that distinguishing where it comes from makes a blind bit of difference. It does make me smile though that the first thing people reach for is that tired old crap.

So two wrongs make a right then?
