How PC of Them!


If I hadn't read this in a reputable newspaper, I'd swear it was a satire from The Onion or some other silly publication. But here it is:

Hallmark issued a Keepsake Ornament for 2013 in the shape of a tacky Christmas sweater. It said (and I kid you not), "Don we now our fun apparel." They didn't want to offend the homosexuals they're so fond of defending and pandering to.

But after an uproar, the gay apparel is back with this explanation, "We've been surprised at the wide range of reactions expressed about the change of lyrics on this ornament, and we're sorry to have caused so much concern."

PC-ness has reached a laughable level.
