There is an annual contest at Texas A&M University calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term. This year's term was: "Political Correctness"

The winner wrote:

"Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of sh1t by the clean end."

Hehehehe....can still see by virtue of no upwards movement on my kudos count from 507 yesterday that someone loves to use IE and go back to the old "down" option......hahahahaha. Oh it is so nice to know that there are some consistencies in this unravelling world. Smile

I think we could have done better on here. That winer started good but closed with a reference to picking up sh!t which makes no sense. I'll post something later - I hope others give it a shot also because the winner really should come from Canada - we've taken political correctness to heights that the USA wouldn't even recognize.

Yep.....hate to see good intentions go too far or more like the old rub of that there can be too much of a good thing?
