Dear Aunties,
I have a wicked sense of humour but being politically correct is important to me. If I can't make fun of the gays, the blacks or the jews, who can I poke fun at?

Dear Graham,
You are quite right not to discriminate against people based on sexuality, colour or religion. The last thing you want to be seen as is bigoted.
However it is perfectly fine to make fun of the working classes, as long as they are young, white and straight. Members of this underclass are called chavs. They hang out on street corners drinking spirits and all have babies in their teens.
Chav comedy is socially encouraged and I'm sure you'll find plenty of inspiration in Berkshire. Have fun!

Dear Graham,
Don't tell Dubya that I told you this, but if you get tired making fun of chavs, Americans are also an easy target. Although Americans enjoy suing people, they also don't get British humor (or spelling, as you can see) and think everything sounds really classy in a British accent, so they probably won't realize that you're mocking them. Enjoy!

I am employed to discriminate against car drivers on a daily basis. As indeed Ken Livingstone seemed to be. Whether such people are predisposed to such a condition remains under question, however. If they can't help the way they are then I guess it's bad to discriminate against them. Big carbon footprints in general are definitely pokefunable.
p.s. I've been wondering today if "motherhood and apple pie" should simply be "parenthood and pie", so as not to discriminate against other pie fillings (including men)?
