I live in NY. This link was posted of fark.com much earlier in the day yesterday: Invalid Link Removed
(however, according to the article it was published 11/15 at 7am, though as I said, it was posted yesterday morning on fark.com)

What a relief. I thought it was just the people in the US who had lost their minds.
Next it will be illegal to use the word "kitty" in school because kitties are also sometimes called "pussies" thereby making the word "kitty" vulgar by association.
Also, it is now illegal to name your son Richard

Not if you don't give him a nickname!
Jeebus H Christmas. Yes, we have gone too far.
From now, our collective vernacular shall consist of only two words to convey any and all thought in conversation for fear of offending just about any thing:
the words are Grey and biege. That is it. Park a bullet in my head right now.

Haha, "Leave Santa alone." Pleeeease!!?
Anyone finding offense in the traditional Santa Clause idiom is clearly looking too hard to be offended. Anyone looking that hard to take offense (if, indeed, anyone actually takes offense to things like this) is much too sensitive to be what I call a "well adjusted" social creature. I have a mind to tell them to get a therapist and stop infringing on my life. I won't though.
On a side note, I love christmas. I'm gonna eat so many gingerbread cookies...probably.

If I see even ONE Santa in the malls that says "ha ha ha," I'ma get the director of the manager and beat him to a pulp, then petition the mall for being anal-retentive about political correctness to the point of retardation.
I know when I takes all my prostitutes to visit mr. mall santa, they always seemed a little put down after. Now me and my ******* can cruise the mall all up and down, with no one being called a ho.
OOOPS!? Can I still say ho? If not, I guess a mod will stike me down, and then I shall become more powerful that you can imagine.

I hope you all read to the bottom of the article. It sounds mostly like the journalists have suckered you into to getting mad at something relatively inane. IMO.
These threads make my laugh hysterically. Know why?
Because if you think we've gone too far now, wait until next year. Then wait for the year after that, and the one after that.
We've only "gone too far" until next week. Then we'll "go" further. There's no bottom to this pit; our parents found that out, and their parents found out too. It's funny to see my peers and those only slightly not my peers step into a pit they thought they never would.
It's free fall at 9.8 m/s2 with no bottom. Buckle up.

how does a normal person have "enemies"?
are you a superhero? gang leader? ...some other third thing?
Is that terminal velocity, or the speed of gravity or something. I haven't thought of that stuff in a while.
