Political correctness

Disclaimer: I mean no harm/offence.

Political correctness is something people strive for, wherever they work. When privacy is almost extinct, one can only do that much - make sure they say whatever they want to say but say it in a way that can be considered 'right', thought it is just a hypocritical way of stating what one would have rather stated instead. I have had to think twice or thrice before talking here, sometimes, something which I needn't have to do before. Political correctness takes the fun out of everything. I mean, Baa baa african american sheep doesn't quite fit in a rhyme does it?

My children will live in a world where the pot calls the kettle African American.

P.s: The disclaimer says it all.
