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....

As a well rounded memeber of the moderate majority this offends me. The GSS should be made up of both men and women, and the squad should also be filled with persons of varied size and first density, as well as persons of reduced physical and mental ability. I this is not changed then I believe you should be strung from the nearest tree branch.

Good day to you sir.

You, sir, just volunteered to be the first test subject for the GSS and our sophisticated methods of easing the struggle of political correctness. You can expect us to contact you very soon.

(As soon as Aardvark made me Minister of Internal Affairs, that is)

It's so good to see I'm not alone in my desire to ignore the conventions of political correctness. Ever since George Carlin died, there's been a gap in the world, where his biting comments used to go. Thanks to all you people who are helping to fill it in.

I'd vote for you

Let's just take everything out of history books that might offend someone, like say: every war in existence... it would please the idiots and make studying history easier...

I'd say that political correctness is better then hatred or dislike towards certain types of people, but it has gone too far, still its nice to know that people are trying to become less prejudiced and hating they just went a little overboard

A true inspiration to the children.

It's kinda like that dunkin' doughnuts ad that had to be completely pulled because the woman in was thought to be wearing a muslim garment...

it turned out to be a frilly scarf. This is what makes me think this whole political correctness or "Supposed consorting with terrorists through ad campaigns and merchandise" bullshit is getting a little too excessive.

also in ther terms of the Middlesex Crusaders, wouldn't it offend MORE people to change the name to something else then it would to take a chance on it MAYBE offending someone?

Political correctness is needed to an extent, but definitely not the extent it's at right now. For example, teachers/lecturers couldn't use the term "brainstorm" for a while since epilepsy sufferers could take offence at it (it's since been changed because, after a study, it was found epilepsy sufferers couldn't care less).

Sir, I am offended by your name.

I'm not a Brit, but I'm curious as to how angry/passive you guys are to the Middlesex Crusaders having to change their name after 10 years because someone 'might' get offended. On a side note, the new name might get banned as well because it 'might' offend PETA.

Now to me this whole thing is ridiculous, but hear me out. They are getting pissed about the "crusaders" part when the word in front of it is Middlesex?
