My Swedish friend says Sweden is the capital of political correctness. This kinda shows that.

Happily I am blessed with a complete lack of imagination. I have not even an inkling to what the fuss is about. No doubt if I am patient it will all be made clear to me.

The screaming was pretty fucked up really.

But eh, some random artist makes something controversial, causes controversy, film at 11. I mean yeah the racial stereotypes are pretty obvious (even though the artist is a black guy) but I can't see myself caring for something that was clearly supposed to cause an outrage.

I like the difference between this thread and the one in discrimination. Over there, outrage and disgust flowing forth...over here: meh...
