      Okay so this is extreme and too far the other way but it's to illustrate a point.

      When you read nonsense about banning baa baa black sheep and the word blackboard and even "Christmas" becoming a dirty word then its gone too far in favour of PC.

      Its refreshing not to have to read about or deal with this bulltulip.

      The politician in question has no idea what she's in for!

        Do you read the Daily Wail?

          I've never understood the furore over this one? If the loony bleeding heart apologists had bothered to read beyond the word 'black' they would notice that the sheep is rather a good role model, he was polite, he provided 3 bags of wool and he shared it out equally.

          Amen to the wooly brother.
          Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

            The most ridiculous one I ever heard was 35 years ago, learning electronics. There is a colour coding system for some components where white = 9 and black = 0

            We had two Malawi students and they complained, they insisted it should be changed so that Black was a bigger number than white

              Do you believe everything you read? You must be stupid then.
              See, that was refreshingly un-PC. I didn't call you "mentally-challenged" or with "learning difficulties", I simply state you're thick as pig-sh!t

                  She’ll have a shock when she goes in a pub and gets served by some lefty Aussie student on a gap year. Or doesn’t get served, as the case may be.
