Political correctness has got to the stage now, where that kind of thing is considered 'Offensive', and just looking at a cute girl on the street now, is ALMOST a crime.

If the likes of the stupid new razor ad is anything to go by(and it most certainly isn't), it is now 'Not cool' to try to talk to an attractive woman. I won't mention the brand, as I know Gizmo does not like negative talk about brands on the forums, and fair enough. I expect most of you know what ad I mean though...(don't mention it by brand if you do)

Orwell's 1984 becomes more and more true by the day. Have any members seen that 'Social credit system' they now have in China? That is really SCARILY just like the black-mirror episode that tried to warn about that kind of stuff.

But for a meme and to return to the funny part of the thread:

I hear you bruv!

I likewise have had to do the ostrich thing because of all the PC BS... makes me so depressed if I let it... so like you looking, I have been watching a lot of memes to cheer myself up and have spent several hours over the last month re-visiting Vines (RIP) some have made coffee come out of my nose.

I remember Vines. They were all the rage for a while, and some of them were very clever considering how short they had to be.

Nice one.

They spend their entire life crying about stupid trivial things and totally forget to live. ...and don't get me started on how one-sided 'Blue-birdy-site' is. Having rules is fine, but they never follow their own rules where one side is concerned, and ban others for never even breaching those same rules. It's something of a free-for-all over in blue-bird land these days. I am not a member of blue-birdy-bird. I can easily do without it. I prefer parrots anyway.

EDIT: Oh, I forgot to add a funny photo, so here you are...

I think this is the PC bird! And its days are numbered.

Ar Grogs. So true. It's called 'The power of the hairy magnet'.

Didn't gizmo send out a message about appropriate content, and advertising ?
