Hahahah that is funny... I quoted some of it below...
Sometimes all this "PC" terminology makes me ill.
I still use BLIND, DEAF, RETARDED, HANDICAPPED, etc. You can write/speak them in one word vs 10million. (grin)
I just don't buy into all this PC renaming of everything... BEofre you know it, you won't be tall or short anymore. You will be "vertically" challenged.

It's ironic; the very groups that helped usher in the PC movement on college campuses throughout the 80's would be the very ones to protest the censorship that PC ideology actually is! So, what the fuck?
