I promise you this is true......at a local golf club their was ((still is, under a different name I believe) an informal society that decided to name themselves 'Weekend Only Golf Society' and then have stuff printed with an anocronym of the title.

That didn't last long. Sure it was done as a jolly jape but just shows how out of touch some people are.

Nope. And now there's some feminist-nazi medical doctor in Oz who wants all the "sexist and misogynistic" terms used in biology and anatomy to be replaced.
Starting with "Adam's Apple" (that''ll piss off the vegetablists) and "Achilles Heel" (goodbye Greek mythology).

I always felt uncomfortable with the dogs name but it was of the era & shouldn't be denied, covered up or otherwise messed with lets be honest nobody took a damn bit of notice for 70 years until all the fuckwittery started up

What does “black lives matter” really mean? Considering that the word “black” comes from the old English word “blac” which means colourless, transparent, it really means that see through lives matter.

Only the 'See through Lives' that have been taken by police*
There was a re-write of the rules when every sane person kept pointing out the tones more See Throughs are killed by other See Throughs. Even the young children killed by other See Throughs don't count because it was not the police that killed them!!!!

You can see right through that statement.

Still rumours that Peter Jackson will eventually direct the remake.

Apparently the two options that were being considered for "renaming" the dog are "Trigger" (as used on the dubbed American release version of the original film) or "Nigsy", which Gibson often called the dog.
