That's Racist!

Political correctness gone loco:

Dozens of quangos and taxpayer-funded organisations have ordered a purge of common words and phrases so as not to cause offence.

Among the everyday sayings that have been quietly dropped in a bid to stamp out racism and sexism are “whiter than white”, “gentleman’s agreement”, “black mark” and “right-hand man”.


So here I am, drinking a nice cup of black dark Joe gender neutral, color non-specific caffeine juice when, suddenly, I am outraged by even more insane political correctness.

*Note* If you don't know what quango means, it's because you're awesome American.
