Probably some confused conservative nutcase that can't tell the difference between ho and the n word.

Well, here's my Politically Correct Holiday Story to share with you: Santa, who most likely has a thyroid disorder rather than being fat, which has inevitably caused him to gain extra weight, works in his toy shop day and night, reasonable hours of course, with his happy little horizontally challenged group of mentally happy elves. Mrs. Claus, a working woman and loving wife and housekeeper, not to be confused with pointless old hag, visits the toy shop often... how's that for a beginning?

Yes the PC police have gone crazy. I was really surprised to see that this didn't happen in the US, but rather in Australia.

Okay, that's not PC, that's just dumb. What's next? We can't use Merry because it might signify a guy's or girl's name?
