Political Correctness .....
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!

No I agree with you Monkeynut. Political correctness has gone mad!!! You can't say anything these days. We are all supposed to be gender, age and ethnically neutral!!
Of course the world isn't like that!
I'm not condoning crass sexiest or racist or ageist remarks, but surely we should celebrate our diversity rather than pretending we're all clones.
And if we can't have a laugh at ourselves, then what's the point!
"Don't be reckless with other people’s hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours"

Yeah totally agree. People are too easily offended these days. No sense of humour at all.

give us an example of something funny you can't say any more because it's offensive?
not having a go at the original poster, but mostly when you hear someone complaining about "PC gone mad" it's some eejit like Jim Davidson whining bitterly that nobody finds him funny any more

Cant crack that joke any more!
Calm down. No one will be going through your attic looking for old toys with inappropriate name.
“I wish you wouldn’t keep appearing and vanishing so suddenly; you make one quite giddy!”
“All right,” said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.
