I shit on political correctness.
You shit on yourself.

No, on political correctness. I am not politically correct, nor am I political correctness itself. Ergo, I do not shit on myself and your assertion is, accordingly, bollocks.

Shurley there must have been other children's writers that included references to golliwogs. Wonder if they got the same attention? Or was Enid the only racist out there? I know from a recent edition we've got, her 'Faraway Tree' books have had a character name edited from Fanny to Franny. Less contentious, but shows the progress the easily offended have made. That said language is always evolving and what meant one thing back in Enid's day can and does mean something different nowadays. Something has to give and to be honest I'm not so entrenched in nostalgia and rose tint that I couldn't bear her hallowed tomes from ever being changed from the original.

You can tell her books are old fashioned because Mr Policeman doesn't shoot the golliwogs.

I'm not particularly entrenched in nostalgia, and I find her writing a bit excruciating now TBH, but changing her words to suit political correctness or modern social mores is just plain wrong IMO. It would be like covering Michelangelo's David because he's showing his 'thingy'.

What are they going to do with Fanny By Gaslight?

That's similar to what some olden days people did with statues around the Vatican. Some overly pious types decided willies weren't appropriate and chopped them off.

I dunno.

Is it OK for bastard to address his daughters as "bitches", "sluts", "cunts", "tarts", "holes" or "whores", or would that be "politically incorrect"?

I get that and I share your disdain for things PC... But where does it end then?

I detest the hijacking of the word 'gay' by the homosexual community.

I guess they took upon that one due to the usual words to describe them: "Fem", "Queer", "Backbiter", "Homo", "Twink", "Pretty Boy", "Silly boy", "Pansy". "Sword-Swallower", "Periwinkle", et. al. It sounds so much more "acceptable" I guess. The girls are not outdone with, "Dyke", "Carpet-muncher", "Butch", "Lez"(Lezzie, Lezbe, Lesbo), Bean flicker, Kitty-puncher...

Gay is also only one syllable.

Female homosexuals seem to often refer to themselves as lesbians though (e.g. the 'L' in GLAD).

Still not sure what's wrong in referring to homosexuals as homosexual though.

Actually, what really got me pissed over the misappropriation of 'gay' was when that old faggot Ian McKellan whined like a bitch that 'gay' was being used to mean 'lame', when everyone knows that it really means 'homosexual' and that it was an insult to homosexuals.

Well, he can fuck off.

Anyhow, in all this white Nazi racist cops shootin' and killin' poor innocent negroes, I hadn't realised (because it's all really rather boring) that three of the six Nazi racists that murdered Freddie Grey in Baltimore (because he was a poor negro meanin' no harm and they're evil white supremacists) could best be described as 'not very white at all':

The majority of them have beards. Maybe that's the link. Facial hair must be the promoter of violence in the world today.

Reminds me of this Oatmeal cartoon.

Looks like the curse of the selfie to me. Your later post led me (eventually), to this:

Should you buy a selfie stick?

Terrible lighting! Why, a couple of those whiteys look like they are black! And who retouched the photos to put curly hair on those whiteys?

They are not all evil white supremecists (the white ones are - [grin]), but they are all stupid cops. That is why cops should not have access to riot guns and military equipment unless they are trained by the military on how to use it, when to use it and why NOT to use it. Same with their Glock 19s, Berettas, and Rugers.

With great power comes great responsibility; the power is the gun and it should be used wisely.

I wanna date with the cute girl. If that isn't a girl, I am either giving that dude a hair cut or I am half a faggot.  :-S
