    Is there anybody else on this board....

    ......who is not a victim of this insidious PC oppression that seems to be all the rage now?

    The poor wee lambs on here seem to be awfully upset and not a wee bit afraid wot with them being such a bunch of victims.

    Something should be done about it anyways - it all sounds terribly upsetting.

      I'm not a victim. What have those nasty PC people done to you now?

        Luckily in Denmark they may understand a lot of English, but subtle nuances like asking if a young lady is peanut smuggling are totally lost. Unless of course the young lady in question was playing a double bluff, which is possible.
        Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

          Nowt as far as I know but they seem to be causing a load of guys on here no end of grief.

          Maybe I'm in denial and need to recognise my own victimhood. Is it too late to sign up for the nonce-maimers or whatever we got up to this week?

            I was on the phone today with a tech engineer in Paris who insisted on speaking en Anglais but was bemused when I kept cracking up every time he mentioned the instructions he was sending me "on how to take a dump"

            Oh those foreigners and their wacky ways

            On a vaguely similar vein I've finally convinced some dutch speaking colleagues that the correct phrase in english for a weekend break is "Cottaging" - Not Big, Not Clever but I had a good chortle anyway

              How about, instead of a fag break, they go outside for a "felch".

                He's got it in for the PC's now. What have they ever done to you ?
