PC gone to far

[TwistedEllipses]

Meh it's a story from the Daily Mail, it's probably not true.

hmm...that's odd they forgot to rant about immigration or Princess Di in this article...

I hear 'it's pc gone mad' way too much from certain parts of the media and unless it's in conjunction with a rubbish Mac ad campaign, a bit of me dies inside.

When I take over the planet, I'll set up a Global Sensitivity Squad. The GSS will be made up of large men with big, heavy fists, who go to the houses of anyone offended at something, then repeatedly punch them in the crotch until they realise that there are more important things in life to worry about than political correctness.

I'll also have Everest carved into a massive monument to me, then I'll get to the business of getting Mankind off this stinking dirt ball and into Spaaaaaaaaaace....

Sir, you have my vote.

Can I be part of the squad?

 

[Specter_]

So...what? They're going to rename our basketball team to something else, because it's named after a battle in which we crushed the Germans, because they might be offended? Or maybe we should change our capitals basketball team's name, because it was used to describe our resistance against Russians, so they might think of it as offensive?

Yes, I'm totally offended by everything that has anything to do with that basketball team. Also I have no idea which team you are speaking of.

You've got my vote, too, and my support in any coup attempts. Let me know if you have an opening for Trusted Lieutenant or Efficient Aide. (Although I must insist on being given metal teeth.)

 

[PlasticPorter]

I think its been long enough since the Crusades that your gonna get offended by it, nobody has to take you seriously.
Go ahead make fun of my religion, I don't care. Make jokes about Bloody Sunday I still do not care. People need to either grow up or develop a sense of humor FAST cause the world has better things to do than worry about someone accidently or otherwise offending your delicate sense of morals.

Ok, but you've got to pay for your own bootcut.

 

[Eldritch Warlord]

The cricket team formerly known as the Crusaders is from a sexually suggestive British town.

That's what I think about political correctness.

first yella and chris croker now Eggo? what is this world coming to?

 

[Beefcakes]

Oh it thought this was going to be another pro-console rant.

I find our PC society hilarious because of how absurd some people appear 'dedicated' to. If they just took one step backward out of their own little warped up, selfish life that they have created for themselves they would see how much of an idiot they're making themselves look.

Baa Baa Rainbow sheep, have you any wool...

They're probably going to have to amend that again soon for fear of offending persons that come from countries that produce wool.

Baa baa rainbow sheep, have you any adamantium...

Wait! What about sheep's rights!?

Squawk squawk rainbow griffin, have you any adamantium...

Okay, seriously, the rainbow part has been disputed by the gay societies, and can no longer be used...

So, its down to Squawk squawk griffin of non-descript colour, have you any adamantium...

But what about people who don't just read English, should it be in its original language?

Squawk squawk grȳphus of non-descript colour, have you any adamantium...

But what about dumb griffins? Surely the griffin should not speak so as not to angry dumb griffins, so instead of a rhyme, we now have a simple query, asked to a mythical bird
grȳphus of non-descript colour and gender, have you any adamantium...

Wow, I sure hate this degree of PC

 

[DrummerM]

Oh I thought this was going to be another pro-console rant.

Me too.

Someone enlighten me (Because I'm thick), does PC stand for political correctness?

EDIT: Yes, yes it does.

I'll also have Everest carved into a massive monument to me, then I'll get to the business of getting Mankind off this stinking dirt ball and into Spaaaaaaaaaace....

Maaaann I always wanted you to go....

Sorry.

On topic, why act before people get pissed off?

"I'm sorry you can't call your son jon, people might be offended".

 

[JWAN]

when people tell you to change something because it might be offensive, take a lesson from Texas and tell them to- "Go screw their chiwawa in the back seat of their Prius at the local vineyard then take the parking break off and roll down the hill into a large body of water and DROWN themselves, their uncomfortable rat-dog, and their crap hippiemobiel".

It was about 2000 years ago get the fuck over it, yes I have said GTFOI to many MANY Muslims who have said they looked down at me because I'm catholic and because that meant I was a Crusader. If they cared so damn much about it they should have changed it 10 years ago.

It makes me angry that you are allowed to use the term 'male' as part of your self-definition.

(That was rather tasteless and unprovoked, wasn't it? Apologies)


Political correctness: It. Stops. Now.

When you rig the elections, you can count on my vote!

I was going to bring up the rainbow = gay thing too, but felt that I had gone on too long and it had become unfunny. However you put a great spin on it... I feel that I should continue, but can't be bothered.

I think he was being ironic, or otherwise if he is being sincere please forgive me and I will berate the 14 year old with you.

(Apologies for double post, I commented on something from the 1st page and didn't think to add this one to the end of the first post)
